Commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning report

Commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning documentation works best when it separates the service result from photos, exceptions, and the next customer action.

Document the system area

Name the hood, filters, duct access, fan, grease path, and any service label so the report maps to the actual kitchen exhaust system.

Separate photos from explanation

Photos should support the written result. They should not force the customer to infer what was completed.

Preserve exceptions

If a panel, roof area, or fan access was blocked, record it as an exception with a requested customer action.
