GREASE FILTER LOW FILTRATION EFFICIENCY GREASE CAPTURE ONLY 20-40% THE PROBLEM MESSY COSTLY RISKY Regular metal grease filters only capture 20-40% of grease, allowing the majority to pass through into the hood, ducts, fan, and roof. This leads to costly buildup, increased fire risk, and ongoing maintenance expenses. It’s a messy problem in need of a cost-effective solution.
Most kitchens clean their metal filters in-house or rely on filter exchange services, which often means: Cleaning kitchen exhaust systems is costly, disruptive, and inconvenient. Poor or inadequate cleaning increases fire risks and can compromise insurance coverage. Cleaning too often or not often enough Grease Accumulation Risks: Monthly, quarterly, or half-yearly cleaning of ducts, hoods, and fans is essential but often outsourced, adding to costs. Wasting time, water, and chemicals High labor costs Consequences of Poor Cleaning: Inadequate maintenance wastes money, leaves systems vulnerable to fire, and jeopardizes safety and compliance. Exposure to harsh chemicals Environmental harm THE FIRE RISK Poor, infrequent, inaccessible, or incomplete cleaning of the canopy, duct, and fan can lead to dangerous grease accumulation within the exhaust system, resulting in: Fires Loss of income Rejected insurance claims due to lack of proper maintenance The consequences can be devastating—many restaurants never recover, often leading to permanent closure. Don’t let poor maintenance put your business at risk.
THE BENEFITS Capture grease before it enters the exhaust system, minimizing dangerous grease buildup. Dramatically lower labor costs by reducing the need for frequent metal filter cleaning and duct maintenance. Fewer cleaning cycles mean less water and fewer harsh chemicals used, contributing to a greener planet.
