About kitchen extract cleaning in RG9

Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in RG9, usually within one working day. The work covers discharge points, canopies and hoods and vertical risers, and people most often call us about a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer and years of baked-on grease in the ducts.

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.

  1. We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
  2. Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
  3. With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
  4. We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
  5. Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.

Kitchen extract cleaning around RG9

In RG9, we work in places such as Henley-on-Thames, Sonning Common and Lower Shiplake and well beyond. Every place on our RG9 list (36 in all) is covered, with cleans booked around trading hours.

In England, the Fire Safety Order puts the duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and each certificate and photo report is a record you can keep in your log book.

Henley-on-Thames: Historic houses near Henley-on-Thames, such as Greys Court about 2.3 miles west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Holy Trinity Church or elsewhere in Henley-on-Thames, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Common problems we fix in RG9

The reason for all this is fire. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. That’s why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
  • A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
  • Missing paperwork after a change of operator
  • A system with no record of a TR19 clean

Between visits

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
  • Keep the baffle filters clean
  • Run the extract fan throughout cooking
  • Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy

A TR19 certificate notes the date, the location and the technician. File it with the fire risk assessment and the maintenance log so it’s ready when anyone asks to see it.

Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.

Honest limits

Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Fat blocking the kitchen drains
  • An undersized canopy or fan
  • A duct that’s holed or coming apart

Part by part

Canopy and plenum

Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, each section is cleaned and photographed before and after.

Extract fan and discharge

At the end of the system is the discharge, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. It’s cleaned as far as safe access allows, and any limits are recorded.
