What Restaurant Inspections Look for—And How You Can Pass Every Time

Running a restaurant in Ireland isn’t just about great food; it’s also about meeting high standards for hygiene and safety. Health inspections are a big part of that. We’ve worked with countless kitchens, and we know what inspectors pay attention to. A major focus? Your kitchen ventilation system. When grease builds up, it becomes a fire risk and a red flag for inspectors. But with the right support and regular duct cleaning services, staying inspection-ready becomes easy.

The Top Areas Inspectors Check in Your Kitchen

Food safety officers look at everything from food storage to personal hygiene, but the kitchen’s cleanliness makes a lasting impression. They check for:

• Grease build-up in canopy hoods and ducts

• Ventilation efficiency and airflow

• Cleanliness of walls, floors, and worktops

• Signs of pests or mould

• Proper maintenance records

When your ventilation system is clogged or dirty, the whole kitchen suffers, smoke lingers, heat builds up, and bacteria have a breeding ground. That’s why keeping on top of your kitchen ventilation isn’t just a good idea, it’s essential.

Stay Ahead with Regular Duct Cleaning Services

In our experience, restaurants that book regular duct cleaning services never panic about inspections. We take care of everything, from deep cleaning canopies to scrubbing ducts and checking airflow systems. It’s not just about passing inspections, either. A clean system improves kitchen safety, keeps staff comfortable, and even lowers energy bills.
