Accumulated grease and dirt can clog up the ducts of your kitchen exhaust over time, potentially creating a fire hazard. Cleaning your kitchen exhaust regularly will help minimize the risk of fires and create a better environment for your employees.
Cleaning the kitchen ventilation is a pivotal task to sustain a secure and healthy atmosphere. If not kept up frequently, the exhaust system in the kitchen can be congested with fat and other material that could cause a risk of fire. Regular upkeep of the ventilation will not only decrease the danger of fire but will also meet insurance criteria.
Keeping your ventilation system compliant is essential for any commercial kitchen. It is necessary for any commercial kitchen to regularly inspect and maintain the ductwork, as grease and other debris can cause serious fire safety hazards. The best practice would be to ensure that the exhaust hoods, filters and ducts are cleaned regularly, up to tr-19 standards.
The cleaning process is commonly known as TR19 Kitchen Extraction Cleaning. The primary purpose of TR19 is to reduce the risk of fire due to the build-up of grease and fat in kitchen ducts. Grease, lubricants and other combustible materials can accumulate in the ducts, leading to an increased risk of fire.
A professional company can safely and effectively clean to the TR19 standard and provide any advice or recommendations where necessary. Furthermore, some insurers may require a certificate of cleaning to be provided as evidence that the kitchen extraction cleaning has taken place. We provide a detailed report, including before and after pictures.
The cleaning frequency can depend on several factors, such as the size and complexity of the system and grease production. Businesses should clean their extraction system between 2-12 months a year. We can also provide tips to reduce your level of oils and grease within the extraction.
It's worth noting that many insurers will only cover damages caused by a fire if an extract or canopy if companies have taken appropriate steps to maintain their HVAC. GDT Envirocare LTD is experienced and qualified to undertake the necessary work and can add further peace of mind should you ever need to claim your policy provider.

It is paramount to replace broken filters in kitchen extraction systems as soon as possible. This helps to prevent grease and other debris from entering the ventilation system, which could potentially cause a fire. Filters also help change the air's direction, trapping grease droplets and other debris that could enter the ductwork. Replacing broken filters and removing the grease can prevent potential problems like fires or blocked airways, keeping your kitchen safe and clean.
