Which service does your hood need?
Every time the hob is lit, oil vapour and smoke rise into the hood and stick to its inner walls, filter and fans. Over time that vapour turns into a thick greasy layer that blocks the air channels and weighs down the fan, so suction weakens and cooking smoke lingers in the kitchen.
The hazard that does not show on the surface is inside the ventilation ducts that run above ceilings and behind walls. Accumulated grease in those ducts can ignite when the temperature reaches a certain point. The high summer heat makes that risk more noticeable in both commercial and home kitchens.
To find out which service suits your hood, look at the options in the list below, then call or message us on WhatsApp with the type of hood and your district, and we agree a time that works for you.
Hood cleaning services differ by the type of hood, its position and how it is used; choose the option below that matches your situation.
- Hood filter cleaningYour filter is visible and reachable, and you notice it is saturated with grease or has not been cleaned in a long time.
- Ceiling extractor cleaningYou have an extractor fitted in the ceiling rather than the wall above the hob, and you need the whole unit cleaned in place.
- Restaurant hood cleaningYour kitchen is commercial or in a restaurant, where cooking is continuous and grease accumulates far faster than in a home kitchen.
What sets 'Iliqah apart
Houses spread across 'Iliqah see daily cooking, and the hood takes in steam and grease from all of it. Fat settles in every corner of the hood and in the pipes, making it hard to shift with ordinary cleaning. Call us, describe how your hood is doing, and we arrange the work to fit what you need.
'Iliqah is a small hamlet in the Riyadh region; you order by call or WhatsApp message, and the time is agreed then.
In small settlements the roads can be narrow, so mention any landmarks near your house that help us locate it.

Questions about Kitchen hood & extractor cleaning
How do I know my hood needs cleaning?
Clear signs are that the filter or inner edges feel sticky to the touch, or that smoke is no longer pulled away as well as it used to be. You may also notice grease dripping onto the tiles behind the hob, or a strong fatty smell that stays in the kitchen after cooking.
What is the difference between cleaning the filter and cleaning the whole hood?
The filter is the first barrier vapour passes through and the easiest part to reach, but grease gets past it to the fan, the inner walls and the ventilation ducts. Cleaning the filter alone improves airflow for a while, but cleaning the whole hood addresses every place where grease has built up. We ask you what you notice when you call, so we agree on the right scope.
Is hood grease removal different from regular cleaning?
Yes. Grease that has hardened on the hood is different from ordinary dust: it is a stuck layer bonded to the metal and needs an approach that is distinct from wiping surfaces. The work usually starts by soaking the removable parts and loosening the hardened residue before rinsing. That is why hood grease and fat removal is a separate service, not part of a general kitchen clean.
How do I prepare before the cleaning appointment?
Move cookware and food away from the hob area and the surface below the hood. If you have filters that come out easily, let us know beforehand. For commercial kitchens, tell us your closing hours so we can agree a time that does not interrupt the operation.
Does cooker hood cleaning include the ducts behind the wall?
Cooker hood cleaning normally covers the unit itself, the filter, the fan and the inner walls. The ventilation ducts that run behind the wall or above the ceiling need a separate assessment depending on duct length and access. Tell us when you call if you notice a severe drop in suction, as that can point to a blockage in the duct.
What is the common mistake that delays hood cleaning?
Many people wait until the hood stops working altogether before asking for a clean. By that point the grease has hardened deeply inside the fan and the ducts, making the job considerably more involved. Noticing the drop in suction early and acting on it is much simpler than waiting.
What should I check after the hood is cleaned?
Switch the hood to its highest setting and hold your hand below it to feel the suction. Check that the filter is seated correctly and that there is no dripping or unusual greasy smell. If you notice anything that does not seem right, let us know.
Can you clean the hood while it is fitted in the kitchen?
Yes, we work on the hood in place in your kitchen. When you call, tell us if there are specific problems with the draw or smells, and we focus on what needs attention.
What if the hood is very old?
Call us and describe the hood's condition, and we assess what can be cleaned and whether cleaning would help. We will talk you through your options depending on what we find.
