Clear compliance records for your kitchen
Qualified technicians
Relevant BESA or VHR credentials support trained, documented work.
Evidence supplied
You receive certification, reporting and photographs after the clean.
Access assessed first
We check panel provision and accessible duct sections before confirming scope.
Manage grease deposits within your extract system
Grease can build up beyond the visible canopy, so wiping exposed kitchen surfaces isn't enough to manage the extraction system. Our kitchen extract cleaning follows TR19 guidance and can address canopies, hoods, filters, plenum areas, accessible ductwork and extraction fans. Trained technicians with relevant BESA or VHR accreditation or registration complete the work. We first assess access panels and reachable sections, as these determine what can be inspected and cleaned. This gives Manchester kitchen operators a defined scope rather than an unclear promise about hidden ductwork.
Receive documented evidence after cleaning
After the clean, we provide a TR19 certificate, post-clean compliance report and before-and-after photographs. Where required, the evidence can also include grease or deposit measurements and recommendations for future cleaning. Typical guidance is every three months for systems operating 12 to 16 hours daily, every six months for six to 12 hours and every 12 months for two to six hours. Actual requirements depend on system use and findings. Evening, overnight and weekend appointments help us plan technical work around food-service periods.
Frequently asked questions
What evidence will we receive after the clean?
We supply a TR19 certificate, post-clean report and before-and-after photographs. Where required, we can include grease or deposit measurements and recommendations for the next cleaning interval.
How often should a kitchen extract system be cleaned?
Typical guidance ranges from every three months for heavy use to every 12 months for lighter use. Operating hours, grease loading and system findings affect the suitable interval, so we review these details with you.
Can every section of ductwork be cleaned?
Cleaning depends on safe access to the system. We assess existing access panels and identify reachable sections before confirming the scope. Where access is limited, we explain this clearly rather than treating hidden areas as completed.
