Hood Cleaning in Chelsea

Chelsea is a culinary hotspot — home to Chelsea Market's food vendors, gallery-district restaurants, High Line-adjacent dining, and a thriving nightlife scene. Empire Hoods keeps these diverse kitchens fire-code compliant with flexible scheduling.

Chelsea Market alone houses over 35 food vendors in a converted Nabisco factory, each with their own cooking setup but sharing building-wide exhaust infrastructure. Coordinating hood cleaning across dozens of vendors requires careful scheduling with market management — typically during the early morning hours between 2 AM and 6 AM when the building is empty. Empire Hoods has been servicing Chelsea Market vendors for years and has the logistics dialed in.

Along the High Line, restaurants with rooftop and terrace dining face additional challenges. Rooftop exhaust fans and grease containment systems need extra attention in Chelsea, where buildings range from 19th-century warehouses to new construction. The gallery district along West 20th to 27th Streets has also attracted upscale restaurants that demand discreet, high-quality service. Empire Hoods handles everything from the busiest brunch spot on 8th Avenue to the quietest wine bar on a side street.
