Kitchen extracts in Lower Upnor

At about 2 miles from the coast, Lower Upnor is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. The Food Standards Agency lists about 15 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Lower Upnor. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in Lower Upnor are the job of Medway council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Philip & St James or elsewhere in Lower Upnor, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Chattenden Primary School or anywhere near Lower Upnor, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
