Why Metro Detroit's Commercial Kitchens Choose MC²

Metro Detroit's Commercial Kitchen Ventilation Problem Stops Here

From new hood installations and make-up air systems to code compliance and rooftop equipment replacement — MC² handles the full scope. One call. One contractor. Done right.

One Contractor. Three Critical Hood Services.

Michigan law requires commercial hood cleaning twice per year and fire suppression inspection on the same schedule. Most operators juggle three separate contractors to stay compliant — a ventilation company, a duct cleaner, and a fire protection vendor. MC² coordinates all three under one agreement. Ventilation service is self-performed. Hood cleaning and fire protection are delivered through vetted, licensed subcontractor partners under MC²'s direct coordination. One call handles your compliance calendar.
