What your county requires, free and without an account.
Two tools. One tells you how often NFPA 96 says to clean your hood system. The other tells you how your county evaluates and posts inspection results. Use them and leave — plenty of people do, and that’s the point of putting them here.
What schedule does the standard set for a kitchen like mine?
Pick your cooking type and your hours. The result comes from NFPA 96 Table 12.4. Your fire authority can require a shorter interval — that’s theirs to set.
What method does my county use, and what gets posted where a customer can see it?
All 58 California counties and four independent city health departments. What your county uses — A/B/C, pass/fail, numeric, or unscored — what its inspectors look for, and how it publishes results. Some counties run no public programme at all.
A free tool tells you what’s required. It can’t tell you where you stand.
What your county’s evaluation method is. What NFPA 96 says about your hood cleaning schedule. These are public requirements, and they should be free to look up.
Whether your records are current, whether the dates hold up, whether the right documents are in one place when someone asks. That’s not a lookup. That’s the product.
The study sits on that line. It tells you what your county requires and what records your kitchen can be asked for — not whether you have them. Published by Stovio Advisors.
Ten more. No dates.
A tool that’s wrong about your county is worse than no tool.
