According to NFPA
96 "Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of
Commercial Cooking Operations 2008 Edition" it is now required
that you be "certified"
to clean hoods and ducts of commercial cooking establishments.
Certified Hood & Duct Cleaners
Association now offers a correspondence exam for existing kitchen exhaust
cleaners to become certified. If you want to become certified by
CHDCA, this exam is just for you. CHDCA's Lifetime membership
does not expire, which means that you will not have to keep spending
your hard earned money every year and have very little to show for it.
As long as you are actively cleaning kitchen exhaust systems, your
membership will remain active. We keep you up to date on all
industry changes and your certification renews annually at no cost.
The 140 question exam is based off of the NFPA 96
2008 edition and prior experience with cleaning kitchen exhaust systems.
If you or your employees need certification
following the latest NFPA 96 standards, then this course is for you.
You must meet the following criteria in order to
qualify for this exam:
- Be at least 18 years old
- Own, operate or be an employee of a kitchen exhaust
cleaning business in the United States or Canada with at least 1 year of
experience. If you do not have one year of experience then you
will need to go through our much more intensive
hood
cleaning school to become certified.
- Provide proof of insurance
- Provide at least 10 client references (hoods
that you have cleaned in the past 6 months)
- Provide 10 sets of before/after pictures of
your cleaning
- Purchase a copy of the NFPA 96 2008 standards.
The following is included:
- Administration of the Certified Hood & Duct
Cleaners Association's written Certification Exam via proctor.
- Certified Hood & Duct Cleaner
(CHDC) certification from Certified Hood and Duct Cleaners
Association
- Lifetime membership into the Certified Hood &
Duct Cleaners Association
Price:
- LIFETIME OPTION: $2,500 per person for the Lifetime option
- Payment due at registration.
If you have questions, call 1-888-848-6636 and ask to
speak with Russell.
