PLACENTIA, CA— When it comes to commercial kitchen hood installation and cleaning, professionalism and quality are paramount, according to one Los Angeles and Apple Valley hood Installation Company.

That is why, three months after opening its satellite location in Placentia, CA, American Professional Services (APS-Hoods) continues to train professional managers, installers and cleaners on how a quality hood sales, cleaning and installation business is run, said Massoud Farazandeh, chief executive officer of APS-Hoods.

APS-Hoods has worked throughout California since the company’s inception in 1989. It opened a satellite location in California in August to better provide Apple Valley hood sales and Apple Valley hood cleaning services, as well as continue to service the entire state.

“Having a satellite location in Placentia has made it easier for us to provide the caliber of service that our customers are used to,” Farazandeh said. “We no longer have to ship equipment from our Colorado headquarters because now we can maintain an inventory in California.”

Business in the greater Los Angeles area has doubled within the past three months, and Farazandeh anticipates similar results for the Apple Valley area, he said.

“We attribute it to our commitment to stick to our code of ethics,” Farazandeh said.

Farazandeh has concentrated on the satellite location’s business structure, employee training and installation processes since August to ensure that the location is able to offer the highest caliber of service.

“It’s important to make sure we continue to provide an excellent quality of work and that we are not only abiding by government standards, but to this company’s strict standards,” he said.
Managers have been hired and trained to oversee hood installation processes. Hood cleaners with at least 10 years of experience in the industry have been hired, and everyone seems to be settling nicely into their positions.

“I’ve been overseeing installations and hood cleaning jobs, and I’m really happy with what I’m seeing,” Farazandeh said. “It was important to me when we opened this location that we find local employees who had experience and were willing to work according to our company’s standards.”

High standards are what have set APS-Hoods apart from its competition through the years. In addition to performing the work they are hired to do, Farazandeh has maintained a commitment to educate clients throughout the process on what is being done and why it is necessary.

“It’s important to explain the process and to show them evidence that the work has been done properly,” he said. “We have come in and fixed plenty of messes other companies have created through the years and we’ve seen evidence of restaurant owners and managers being taken advantage of by other companies. Our goal is to prove to them that we are not like that.”

The thorough processes have built customer loyalty through the years, as well as a good word-of-mouth advertising base, he said.
