The report is what a Massachusetts restaurant hands the fire marshal, the insurer, or its own facilities team. It should say what was cleaned, what was not reached, and what is still open, without a phone call to you.
When Massachusetts is selected, the report builder can capture a Fire Marshal certificate number and expiration date. Use those fields as part of your documentation workflow, then verify current certificate and submission expectations with the local AHJ or state source.
Massachusetts contractors serving restaurants, colleges, healthcare kitchens, hotels, and institutional facilities need records that are easy for office staff and facility managers to retrieve. The report should explain the job without forcing someone to interpret a folder of photos months later.
Thin certificates are easy to lose and hard to defend. A stronger report records what happened on the job, what evidence was captured, what could not be accessed, and what the customer may need to schedule next.
Customer, site, service date, technician, company details, and credential fields.
Hood, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan, and roof grease containment, each marked bare metal, partial, or not accessed.
Before-and-after images by component, plus captions, timestamps, and job context from the field.
Missing access panels, grease buildup, damage, or unsafe conditions, with a severity, the NFPA 96 section, and the recommended action.
The next service date on the report, the certificate, and the sticker, plus the PDF and the customer's Vault link.
NFPA 96 is a national standard, but local authorities, customer contracts, insurers, and facility policies can add stricter documentation expectations. Use HoodCleaningReport to organize the field record, then verify the adopted edition, credential rules, and submission process with the authority having jurisdiction.
These pages help crews, office staff, and customers understand what the report is documenting before the PDF gets sent.
Yes. When Massachusetts is selected, the builder can capture a Fire Marshal certificate number and expiration date for the customer-facing report.
No. HoodCleaningReport helps contractors create a clearer report packet, but it does not certify compliance or guarantee acceptance by an AHJ, insurer, customer, or fire marshal.
