Extraction and Ventilation Cleaning
Kitchen Hygiene LTD specialise in the deep cleaning and maintenance of grease extraction systems. We provide this service to both public sector and commercial Companies. No matter how efficient your extraction system may seem or how regular your filter cleaning programme, a build up of grease and other flammable substances in ductwork can become a significant fire hazard. This can be devestating to your business and could also be life threatening. Poor maintenance could invalidate your insurance if a fire is deemed to have had poor maintenance  Regardless of the size of your business, cleanliness of the extraction system is too important to ignore.
We have over 23 years experience in this industry and are totally focused in providing the highest quality service we can offer. Our comprehensive grease extraction Cleaning service eliminates the risk or hazardous conditions.
Health and Safety at Work Regulations and Fire Regulations require that both the Manager and premises owners are responsible to carry out a risk assessment of the grease extraction system. The results of this assessment must be acted upon to eliminate or at the very least minimise the risk of fire.
Our ventilation cleaning practices comply with HVCA TR19 Standards as set out in their Guide to Good Practice.
We are increasingly dealing with companies whose insurance company requires evidence that a fire risk assessment has been carried out. Evidence must also be provided to show that the risk assessment has included the grease extract ventilation system and that a professional contractor has cleaned the system on an annual basis as a minimum requirement.
Our services are tailored around the client. We offer a range of services from annual inspections to monthly maintenance programmes.
Following any pre-planned cleaning, we issue a full report contain before & after photographs, schematic and recommendations. These are accepted by Environmental Health Officers and Insurance Companies as evidence that works have been carried out by a specialist contractor.
Due to the potential risks from the build-up of residual grease inside ventilation ducting, access panels should be installed at regular intervals so that the interior can be properly cleaned. Additional benefits will be improved airflow, this helps to maintain a comfortable working temperature, and a reduction in the build up of grease on expensive catering equipment.
The Ducting Access Panels are comprised of a metal frame with rubber gaskets, and an insulated removable door that is secured by cam lock fasteners. Our thoroughly trained Ducting Engineers will ensure the work is carried out to the highest standard.
