Our Story: Industrial Precision for Commercial Safety
“At One Percent Hood and Vent, we don’t just "clean" kitchen exhaust systems—we provide industrial-grade maintenance and fire prevention for the heart of your restaurant.”
The Industrial Foundation
Founded by David Hester and Jesse Dubberly, One Percent Hood and Vent was born from the belief that commercial kitchens deserve the same level of precision and safety found in the nation's most rigorous industrial environments.
With over 18 combined years of experience in industrial maintenance, our team understands the complex mechanics of high-performance systems. We aren't just technicians with pressure washers; we are maintenance specialists who understand motors, fans, and the structural integrity of your exhaust infrastructure.
Why the "One Percent"?
Our name reflects our mission: To provide a level of service that puts us in the top 1% of the industry. We bridge the gap between "standard cleaning" and "industrial inspection" by focusing on what matters most:
