ESP & Pollution-Control Systems
Pollution-control fault, shutdown, or poor performance?
TCS troubleshoots the electrical, controls, fan, pressure, and airflow side of commercial kitchen ESP and ecology systems. Routine hood and duct cleaning is outside the service scope.

Warning Signs
Call when you see these symptoms.
Service Scope
What TCS checks and repairs.
Power and control diagnostics
Power supplies, contactors, relays, transformers, safeties, fault circuits, enable commands, and alarm conditions are evaluated.
Fans, proof, and pressure
Exhaust operation, fan speed, airflow, pressure switches or transducers, tubing, filters, and proof-of-flow conditions are checked.
Interlocks and operating sequence
TCS traces the relationship between the hood controls, pollution-control unit, exhaust fan, makeup air, and related shutdown or alarm signals.
Post-service verification
After an approved repair or third-party cleaning, TCS can verify that the unit powers, proves, enables, and operates through its intended sequence.
Cleaning, mandated inspection, and regulatory certification are separate scopes. TCS focuses on diagnostics, repair, controls, fans, and airflow.

FAQ
Common service questions.
Does TCS clean ESP cells, hoods, or grease ducts?
TCS is not marketing routine hood, duct, or ESP-cell cleaning. The company focuses on diagnostics, electrical and control repairs, fan and airflow problems, startup, and post-cleaning operational verification.
Can dirty cells cause arcing or shutdowns?
Yes, contamination, damage, moisture, broken ionizer components, or spacing issues can contribute to arcing. Safe diagnostic access may require the cleaning contractor to clean the components before electrical testing.
Do you certify NYC code compliance?
TCS documents the service work and operating findings within its scope. Legal compliance, mandated inspection, cleaning certification, filing, and licensed specialty work remain the responsibility of the owner and the appropriately qualified contractors.
What brands do you work around?
Field experience includes Gaylord, CaptiveAire, Accurex, Greenheck, Halton, and related commercial kitchen ventilation and pollution-control systems. Warranty authorization is assignment-specific.
