Kitchen Extraction Cleaning · UK-Wide
Canopies, filters, plenums, cooklines and extract fans stripped of the grease that builds up over every service - cleaned to the TR19 Grease standard and certified for your insurer, fire risk assessor and environmental health officer.

Try the cost calculatorEvery kitchen that fries, grills or chars throws grease into its extraction system. It coats the canopy, saturates the baffle filters, fills the plenum chamber behind them and travels on into the fan. Left to build over service after service, it becomes fuel sitting directly above naked flames - which is exactly why kitchen extraction is a standing item on every fire risk assessment.
Phoenix Cleaning Company has cleaned commercial kitchen extraction across the UK since 2001. We strip the accessible system back to a clean surface - canopy, filters, plenum, cookline surrounds and extract fans - and give you the TR19 Grease certificate and before-and-after photographs that prove it, working around your service so the kitchen keeps running.
A nightly wipe keeps the canopy looking clean. The grease that matters is behind it.
The canopy and the plenum chamber behind the filters catch the heaviest grease. We degrease both, including the surfaces a nightly wipe-down never reaches.
Baffle filters saturate quickly and stop pulling. We clean the filters and degrease the cookline surrounds so heat, steam and smoke are drawn away as they should be.
Grease-clogged fans lose their pull and run hot. We clean accessible extract fans and housings, so the system works harder for you and runs cooler and quieter.
TR19 Grease is the recognised benchmark for the cleanliness of kitchen extract systems. It assesses grease by measured thickness and sets the level at which a system must be cleaned and re-tested. An extraction clean to TR19 Grease is measured, recorded and certified - not a visual once-over.
We inspect the extraction system, check filter condition and access, and agree scope and a cleaning frequency for your kitchen.
We mask and protect the kitchen and isolate safely around any fire-suppression nozzles and pipework.

Fire safety. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and manage fire risk. Grease over an open flame is the classic catering fire, and a current extraction certificate is the evidence a fire risk assessor expects to see.
Insurance. Your insurer expects a current TR19 Grease certificate. Without one, a fire claim can be reduced or refused outright.
Performance and hygiene. A clean system pulls heat, steam and smoke away, keeps the kitchen workable for your staff, and stands up to an environmental health inspection.

Guide based on TR19 Grease. Your exact frequency is confirmed by grease-deposit thickness testing - always use a competent, certified ventilation hygiene technician.
TR19 Grease sets it by daily cooking hours - roughly every three months for heavy use, six for moderate and twelve for light. We measure your grease load and confirm the right interval, stated on your certificate.
An extraction clean covers the canopy, filters, plenum, cookline and accessible extract fan. The concealed duct run from the plenum to the roof fan is covered by our duct cleaning service - we often do both together.
