🔥 Oven Cleaning with Chemicals

Overview
Oven cleaning with chemicals removes baked-on grease, carbon, and food residue from cooking surfaces. It restores efficiency, reduces odor, and ensures sanitary kitchen conditions when performed safely.

Safety & Preparation

• Unplug electrical ovens or switch off gas supply before cleaning.
• Wear chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and apron.
• Ensure adequate ventilation or use fans when working in confined kitchens.
• Use only approved oven cleaners rated for food-service equipment.

⚠️ Avoid contact with aluminum or painted surfaces — caustic cleaners can cause discoloration or corrosion.

Step-by-Step Process

1. Preparation: Remove racks, trays, and liners; soak separately in warm, soapy water.
2. Chemical Application:
   • Apply cleaner to interior surfaces using a spray bottle or sponge.
   • Avoid heating elements and glass unless product allows.
   • Let sit 10–15 minutes (follow label dwell time).
3. Scrubbing & Rinsing:
   • Use non-abrasive pads to loosen residue.
   • Wipe thoroughly with damp cloth until no chemical remains.
4. Finishing:
   • Dry interior with clean towel.
   • Reinstall racks and run a short empty heat cycle to burn off residual moisture.

When It Applies

• During deep-clean rotations in commercial kitchens.
• Move-in/move-out or post-renovation cleanings.
• Periodic maintenance for heavily used appliances.
