What is commercial kitchen extract cleaning?

Commercial kitchen extract cleaning involves professionally cleaning the ductwork, filters, fans, and hoods in a kitchen ventilation system. This removes grease, smoke, and debris, improving air quality, reducing fire risk, and ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.

Why is fire damper testing and remedial work important?

Fire dampers prevent the spread of fire and smoke through ductwork in a building. Regular testing and remedial work ensures they operate correctly during a fire, protecting staff, property, and ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations.

How often should a kitchen extract system be cleaned?

Most commercial kitchens require extract cleaning at least every 3–6 months, depending on usage. High-volume kitchens may need monthly cleaning to maintain safety, airflow, and hygiene.

What does kitchen extract system sealing involve?

Sealing a kitchen extract system ensures all duct joints, fan housings, and penetrations are airtight. This prevents smoke and grease leaks, improves system efficiency, reduces energy costs, and prevents potential fire hazards.

What is high-level cleaning, and why is it necessary?

High-level cleaning involves accessing and cleaning areas of a commercial kitchen that are difficult to reach, such as ceilings, walls, beams, and overhead ductwork. It removes grease buildup, reduces fire risk, and ensures compliance with hygiene standards.
