HydroPlus

Your commercial kitchen exhaust hood is the first defense against grease buildup and fire hazards. At HydroPlus, we specialize in complete, code-compliant cleaning of all hood types—including stainless steel, galvanized, and custom systems. Our process begins with a thorough inspection of your hood, filters, and plenum. We then hand-scrape heavy deposits, apply eco-friendly degreasers, and pressure wash with hot water and steam to emulsify every bit of grease.

After power washing, we hand-polish every inch of stainless steel to a streak-free shine. Why by hand? Because running a cloth over every surface lets us feel for missed grime and spot deficiencies before they become expensive problems. We also wrap your hood entirely in plastic sheeting, funneling wastewater into a barrel and floor drain—so your kitchen floor and nearby equipment stay bone dry.

Restaurant owners in Denver choose HydroPlus because we provide documented proof of service: detailed before-and-after photos of every cleaned area. You get a clear record for your insurance company, fire marshal, and health department. With over a decade of experience, we understand NFPA 96 standards and local Denver fire codes. Let us handle the dirty work so you can focus on your menu. Serving Denver and all surrounding neighborhoods, we offer flexible scheduling including nights and weekends to avoid interrupting your service.

The parts of your exhaust system you never see—the ductwork, fan blades, and interior plenum—are where dangerous grease accumulates the fastest. HydroPlus provides deep-cleaning for horizontal ducts, vertical risers, and exhaust fans that goes far beyond a surface wipe. We use drop-down spinner nozzles attached to high-pressure hoses to scour the inside of your ducts from every angle. These rotating jets spray hot water and cleaning solution at high velocity, dislodging even baked-on carbonized grease.

For exhaust fans, we disassemble the fan housing, belt-drive assembly, and blades when safe to do so. Each component is cleaned individually in our mobile wash system or on-site with full containment. We also check and replace worn fan belts as part of our standard service—because a broken belt means no exhaust, and that means smoke and heat backing up into your kitchen.

After cleaning, we reassemble, test fan operation, and provide you with dated photos showing the interior of your ducts and the fan housing before and after our work. This documentation is vital for insurance audits and fire inspections. We serve restaurants, hotels, cafeterias, and any commercial kitchen in Denver that demands a higher standard. Our team is trained in confined space safety and lockout/tagout procedures. When we leave, your system will move air more efficiently, reduce fire risk, and smell clean—not greasy.

One of the biggest frustrations restaurant owners face after a hood cleaning is the mess left behind—puddles on the floor, greasy residue on equipment, and wet counters. HydroPlus has engineered a containment system that eliminates this problem entirely. We arrive with pallets of heavy-duty plastic sheeting, floor drain seal mats, and disposable drop cloths. Our team covers your cooking equipment, prep tables, shelving, and any nearby electrical components before we start any pressure washing.

Your hood itself is wrapped in plastic and taped to create a watertight seal. We then attach a funnel and hose that directs every drop of wastewater and loose grease into a barrel, which drains directly into your floor drain or grease trap. No water touches your floor. No soap splashes onto your stove. We even use inline soap injectors to precisely control cleaning agent application, so nothing is wasted or left behind.

This attention to detail is why HydroPlus is trusted by busy Denver kitchens. You won't need to budget extra time for cleanup after we leave. We also remove and properly dispose of all grease and debris in accordance with local environmental regulations. Our process is faster than traditional methods because we're not wasting time mopping up our own mess. We bring commercial-grade vacuums for any minor drips. If you can't remember the last time a cleaning company left your kitchen cleaner than they found it, it's time to switch to HydroPlus.
