Canopy and Extractor Cleaning
Commercial extractors must comply with TR19 and fire safety standards. Professional canopy and extractor cleaning ensures full compliance and optimal performance.
Why use a professional cleaning service?
Commercial kitchen canopy hoods work hard to remove heat, fumes and particles from your professional catering environment. Professional, preventative maintenance and cleaning are critical to keep it working at its best.
- Compliant with fire safety regulations
- Protect staff and customers/users
- Reduce fire risk in your catering area
- Meeting business insurance obligations
- Maximise equipment efficiency/performance
- Identify any problems and arrange any necessary repairs
Commercial kitchen hood cleaning services
Our engineers inspect, clean and service all parts of your kitchen’s canopy/hood system.
Following a visual inspection of the extractor, access panels and filters, they’ll complete a deep clean and service your unit to remove grease and other blockages/hazards.
Understanding the legislation
Non-compliance with TR19 and fire safety regulations can lead to fines or closures and will likely impact how your customers and staff view your business. You could even inadvertently void your insurance by failing to stay on top of the maintenance of your extractor unit.
It’s not just TR19 standards you need to consider; failing to remove grease and oil deposits from your extractor can also constitute a violation of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which requires you to take proper precautions to keep your premises safe from fire.
Peace of mind
Along with the peace of mind of knowing that your extractor is clean and working optimally, you’ll also receive a certificate proving full TR19 compliance, which may be passed on to insurers and other key stakeholders.
