Frequently Asked Questions
How often is exhaust hood cleaning required by NFPA 96?
NFPA 96 (Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations) requires cleaning frequency based on cooking volume: monthly for solid fuel cooking (wood, charcoal); quarterly for high-volume cooking (24-hour operations, charbroiling); semi-annually for moderate-volume cooking; and annually for low-volume cooking (pizzerias, churches, seasonal businesses). Your local fire marshal may have additional requirements. Failure to comply can void your fire suppression system coverage.
My combi oven's steam function isn't working. What's wrong?
Combi oven steam issues are commonly caused by: clogged steam generator or boiler scale buildup, failed heating element in the steam generator, water inlet valve problems, or steam nozzle blockages. Mineral scale from hard water is the most common culprit and can be prevented with regular descaling. A combi oven specialist should inspect the steam system as improper repairs can damage the boiler.
My walk-in cooler temperature is rising. What should I do first?
1) Check if the condenser unit is running. 2) Inspect condenser coils for dirt and debris — blocked coils are a common cause. 3) Ensure walk-in door gaskets are sealing properly. 4) Check if evaporator fan is running. 5) Look for ice buildup on evaporator coils (defrost system failure). If temperature is rising significantly, move temperature-sensitive inventory and call a technician immediately — this is an emergency situation.
