Service Description

Professional ventilation cleaning effectively removes grease deposits, reduces carbon build ups, improves air flow and helps prevent fires from starting in your ventilation system.If regular cleaning, in accordance with the BESA specification, TR19® Grease, is not undertaken, fats, oily, greasy (FOG) deposits and fibrous particles can accumulate in kitchen extract systems, reducing air flow efficiency and producing a warm greasy environment for bacteria and cockroaches to breed. These areas, if not professionally maintained, can quickly become a fire risk and can be a major cause of the ignition and / or spread of fire in food production establishments. Under certain circumstances flame or very high temperatures can ignite the grease causing fire to spread rapidly through the duct. Therefore, it is of particular importance that grease extract systems are regularly inspected and cleaned as required, to ensure that the obvious fire risk is kept suitably under control. In addition to this, failure to ensure regular cleaning of kitchen grease extract systems can invalidate buildings insurance cover and highlight a lack of legal compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order. We are aware of many cases where insurers have refused to pay out on millions of pounds worth of claims following fires where the insured has not complied with the conditions or warranties on their buildings insurance policies regarding regular professional cleaning of the grease extract systems.
