A failed exhaust fan or unbalanced ventilation system is both a health code concern and a safety risk. KitchenGuard services all hood fan types and ventilation components throughout Hampton Roads.
Fan motor failure is the most common exhaust ventilation repair. We stock common motor sizes for fast turnaround.
Belt-driven hood fans require periodic inspection and replacement to prevent failure.
Worn bearings cause noise and eventual motor failure. Caught early on PM visits.
Proper exhaust-to-supply balance is critical for comfort, hood performance, and code compliance.
Rooftop upblast fans require grease trap inspection and cleaning to prevent fire hazards.
Two PM visits per year for each exhaust hood fan — written condition report after every visit.
This equipment category is included in KitchenGuard PM contracts. Two scheduled visits per year per unit, written condition reports, and trip charge waived on all repair calls. View PM plans and pricing.
Common questions
A standard PM visit includes visual inspection of motor and fan blades, belt condition check, bearing lubrication, grease trap inspection, airflow check, and a written condition report.
Yes. Grinding typically indicates bearing failure, which leads to motor failure if not addressed. Schedule a service call as soon as possible.
Grease filter cleaning is not included in PM visits — that's typically performed by a hood cleaning service. We inspect the filters and advise if they need attention.
We're already taking service calls and PM contract inquiries ahead of our September 2026 launch.
