Electrostatic Precipitator Cell Cleaning ![]()
Ready to check if your ESP cells need cleaning? Matrix Systems offers an exclusive ESP washing process to thoroughly clean your electrostatic precipitator cells.
Dirty electrostatic precipitator (ESP) cells can lower efficiency, increase energy costs, and even put your air pollution control system at risk of failure. For businesses in San Leandro, Grass Valley, the Bay Area, Sacramento, and across California, Matrix Systems provides professional electrostatic precipitator cell cleaning services to restore performance and keep your facility compliant.
Why Professional ESP Cell Cleaning Matters
Electrostatic precipitators function to remove smoke, oil mist, and airborne pollutants from the air—but only when their cells receive proper maintenance. Grease and particulate buildup on ESP cells reduce performance and make standard cleaning methods ineffective.
Without adequate cleaning, your system may:
- Fail to meet California’s air quality regulations
- Experience airflow restrictions that drive up energy use
- Increase fire risks in commercial kitchens
- Shorten the lifespan of your ESP units
Matrix Systems uses a specialized ESP washing process to fully restore electrostatic cell performance.
Our Exclusive ESP Cell Cleaning Process
Matrix Systems is the trusted provider of SmogHog ESP cell cleaning and kitchen hood baffle filter cleaning in California. As the inventors of SmogHog SP7 detergent, no company understands this process better.
Here’s how our professional cleaning works:
- Pickup & Inspection– Our team visits your business in San Leandro, Grass Valley, or elsewhere in California to collect contaminated ESP cells and assess contaminant levels.
- Presoak for Heavy Loads– Grease- or char-heavy cells are presoaked in a hot detergent solution to loosen buildup.
- High-Pressure Enclosed Washing– ESP cells are placed in a specialized washer operating at 150 PSI and 150°F for deep cleaning.
- Hot Water Rinse– Cells are pressure-rinsed with 150°F hot water for complete contaminant removal.
- Testing & Repairs– Each ESP cell is tested for proper operation, and internal components are replaced if necessary.
Kitchen Hood Baffle Filter Cleaning
The first line of defense in your commercial kitchen exhaust system is the hood baffle filter. These filters trap grease, char, and smoke particles before they reach the ESP system. Standard scrubbing or dishwashing cannot remove grease that accumulates behind the baffles—leaving a serious fire hazard.
Our process includes:
- Soaking filters in hot water and detergent to loosen grease
- Power rinsing with hot water for complete removal
- Returning filters cleaned and ready for continued use
