Pledge all cleaning companies should sign. 8 KEC companies already have

1) We agree that all work is to be cleaned by our companies will be done to NFPA96 and IKECA C10 standards with all kitchen exhaust cleaning(KEC) jobs and KEC contracts subject to the following clause: "Any costs associated with having to have the system or other considered related areas cleaned up by others as a result of not being cleaned as specified by NFPA96 and IFC standards will be the contractors responsibility if said contractor is either unwilling or unable to clean as required."

2) We agree to clean to NFPA96 and IFC standards, all grease laden air flow areas of the grease exhaust systems. Areas that are not cleaned (Partial cleanings) may include the following but only with written approval from the local AHJ: a) Areas deemed inaccessible but only with express written authorization by the responsible AHJ detailing these areas. b) Areas that are not part of the customers responsibility including common area ductwork past the lease lines for multi tenant systems. c) Areas past a Pollution Control Units installed in the system that contain most of the grease contaminant may be postponed for cleanings only with the AHJ approval and signed off by the owner of the system AND with the agreement that the entire system is to be cleaned regularly when needed. Note: The PCU unit servicing is to be a separate line item and not part of this clause. d) vertical risers for lengthy systems with multistory vertical risers greater than 3 stories where the grease buildup for the normal cycle does not warrant as frequent of cleanings as the rest of the exhaust system. These multi story vertical risers are to be cleaned only when needed per NFPA96 and IKECA C10 standards, but must be on a regular schedule to be done at least annually.
