Exhaust Fan Hinge Kit Installation

Hinge kits are essential safety accessories that allow exhaust fans to tilt open safely during cleaning and maintenance, eliminating the need to completely remove the fan from the roof.

Why Hinge Kits Are Essential:

Roof Top Protection Systems (RPSs)

RPSs provide additional protection and functionality for rooftop exhaust equipment, ensuring safe access and protecting both equipment and maintenance personnel.

RPS Benefits:

  • Enhanced safety for maintenance personnel working on rooftops

Exhaust System Access Panel Installation

Access panels are required by NFPA 96 fire safety codes to ensure all areas of exhaust ductwork can be properly cleaned and inspected. Many commercial kitchens lack adequate access panels, creating fire hazards from uncleaned ductwork sections.

NFPA 96 Requirements:

  • Access panels must be installed every 12 feet of ductwork
  • Panels required at every bend or direction change in the system
  • Proper access needed for thorough grease removal from all ductwork surfaces
  • Fire-rated panels required in specific applications

Our Access Panel Services:

  • Free exhaust system inspection to identify missing or inadequate panels
  • Installation of code-compliant, certified access panels
  • Custom panel sizing and placement for optimal cleaning access
  • Fire-rated panels where required by code

Frequently Asked Questions

What exhaust fan accessories does Premier Grease install?

We specialize in four essential accessories: fan belts, hinge kits, Roof Top Protection Systems (RPSs), and access panels. These components are critical for safe maintenance, proper cleaning access, and regulatory compliance.

Do you service fan motors or electrical components?

No, Premier Grease does not service fan motors or perform electrical work. Our expertise is specifically in mechanical accessories and components that support hood cleaning operations. For motor or electrical issues, we recommend consulting qualified electrical contractors.

Why do I need an exhaust fan hinge kit?

A hinge kit allows your exhaust fan to tilt open safely during cleaning, eliminating the need to completely remove the fan from the roof. This prevents equipment damage, roof membrane punctures, and electrical connection issues while ensuring thorough cleaning access.

How often should I replace my exhaust fan belt?

Fan belt manufacturers recommend replacement with every hood cleaning service, typically every 3-6 months depending on usage. Regular replacement prevents unexpected failures that could shut down your kitchen operations.

What are NFPA 96 requirements for access panels?

NFPA 96 requires access panels every 12 feet of ductwork and at every bend or direction change in the exhaust system. These panels ensure all ductwork areas can be properly cleaned to prevent grease buildup and fire hazards.

What is a Roof Top Protection System (RPS)?

An RPS provides safety platforms and protection for maintenance personnel working on rooftop exhaust equipment. It enhances safety, protects equipment, and helps meet OSHA requirements for safe roof access.

Can you install accessories during my regular hood cleaning?

Yes, we coordinate accessory installations with your regular hood cleaning schedule to minimize disruption. Belt replacements are routinely performed during cleaning services, while other accessories can be scheduled as needed.

Do you provide warranties on your accessory installations?

Yes, we provide a lifetime warranty on hinge kit installations and comprehensive warranties on all other accessory installations. This demonstrates our confidence in the quality of our work and components.

How do I know if my exhaust system needs access panels?

We provide free exhaust system inspections to identify areas where access panels are missing or inadequate. If there are ductwork sections that cannot be properly cleaned, access panels are likely needed for compliance and safety.

What should I do if my exhaust fan stops working?

First, check if it’s a belt issue (no fan movement but motor running). If so, contact us for belt replacement. For electrical or motor problems (no motor operation, electrical issues), contact a qualified electrical contractor as we do not service motors or electrical components.
