About Fat Free Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning
Our story
A Florida legacy with working roots.
The company legacy began with David A. Nowack in Syracuse, New York, in 1980. After moving to Florida in 1992, he established the Fort Myers operation and carried the same hands-on standard into a new market.
Today, Fat Free KEC continues that tradition through statewide service coordinated from Tampa and Fort Lauderdale. The capabilities have expanded, but the principle remains familiar: understand the system, respect the customer’s operation and take ownership of the result.
