Hoods, ducts and grease traps

Tile and silicone on this page are the finishes an inspector photographs. The grease trap and a new water point have their own rules.
Restaurant, cafe and cloud-kitchen inspection repairs: access and preparation
Restaurant, cafe and cloud-kitchen inspection repairs is planned as a site with a manager, a closing time, and a permit-to-work where the building asks for one. A shop, a clinic, a preschool, a gym or a small office is not a home call-out with the same access.
Night work, a security escort, and the size of the unit change the visit. A clinic retainer follows a written hygiene schedule. HomeySG is the contractor, not the licensed clinic. An F&B hood and grease trap is a different page from a domestic kitchen degrease.

Plan Restaurant, cafe and cloud-kitchen inspection repairs
Confirm access hours and the person who signs the permit-to-work.
Protect the public side of the unit. Customers and patients are not a home audience.
Do the agreed scope. Separate a repair from a cleaning retainer if both are booked.
Dispose of waste the way the building requires.

| Access | HDB | Condo | Landed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mall or office | After-hours rules and a permit-to-work are common. | A condo shop follows the MCST as well as the landlord. | A landed shophouse still has a public pavement. Keep it clear. |
| Clinic or school | Work around operating hours. The operator remains the licensee. | The same, inside a commercial condo. | Name the rooms. A hall and a pantry are not one cupboard. |
| Waste | The building may ban the home chute. | Use the service lift and the building’s waste rule. | A landed bin is not a mall compactor. Ask where waste goes. |
