Correctional facilities, government agency cafeterias, shelters, residential treatment centers, and public-sector feeding operations across TX, OK, LA, NM, and AR rely on Facilitec Southwest for NFPA 96–compliant exhaust cleaning under strict security protocols, tight public budgets, and audit-ready documentation standards.
An institutional kitchen feeds hundreds or thousands of meals a day on a public budget, under strict security protocols, to a population that literally cannot miss a meal. A county jail, a residential treatment center, a state agency cafeteria, and a community shelter all share the same operating reality — the kitchen runs because it has to, the documentation satisfies public audit, and the contractor either respects the protocol or doesn't come back. Facilitec Southwest has served this segment for three decades.
Regular exhaust cleaning dramatically reduces your risk by keeping flammable grease out of the exhaust system and ensuring your suppression system can perform properly during an emergency.
County, regional, and municipal detention centers with on-site feeding operations under 24/7 security protocols.
State prison and federal correctional facility kitchens with kitchen operations, trustee labor, and inspection-intensive protocols.
City halls, county courthouses, state buildings, and federal campuses with public-employee dining operations.
Behavioral health, substance recovery, and long-term residential treatment facilities with their own on-site dietary operations.
Homeless shelters, domestic violence shelters, refugee services, and community feeding programs with nonprofit operating budgets.
Juvenile detention, youth residential, and state-operated youth services kitchens with extra sensitivity and oversight requirements.
Background checks, tool counts, key control protocols, and facility vendor-portal registration completed before any crew reports to the gate.
Full manual grease removal from hood, plenum, duct, and fan — with containment tarping protecting serving lines, tray rails, and POS stations.
Food-safe, commercial-grade degreasers and contained pressure washing — sized for three-meal-a-day institutional cook lines and high-BTU equipment.
Tool inventory reconciliation, dated NFPA 96 sticker per hood, photo log, and a close-out packet formatted for fire marshals, state inspectors, and public auditors.
Your rooftop is just as vulnerable as your hood. Facilitec Southwest installs and maintains rooftop grease containment systems to stop leaks, protect roofing materials, and prevent costly repairs.
