NFPA 96 governs commercial kitchen exhaust systems nationwide — but it is not adopted uniformly. Different states enforce different editions, and the edition in force sets the section numbers, cleaning thresholds, and documentation rules a kitchen is held to. Adopted editions currently span a full decade. Below is the NFPA 96 edition for every U.S. jurisdiction — the data HoodOps applies to every cleaning record automatically.
