Extraction Cleaning · Bishop's Stortford
Bishop's Stortford cooklines - North Street restaurants, market cafes, airport-side canteens - load canopy, filters and fan with grease. We strip and degrease the whole system, canopy to fan, and certify it fire-safe to TR19 Grease.

Try the cost calculatorBishop's Stortford cooks for a market town and an airport on its doorstep. The restaurants of North Street and South Street, the cafes of Jackson Square and the canteens toward Stansted all drive their canopies hard, and the filters, plenum and fan take on grease quicker than a nightly clean can shift it.
Within an East Hertfordshire food economy of 1,401 rated premises, a greased extraction shows as a hot, smoky kitchen - the canopy no longer pulling at the line, the clogged filters and fan a fire risk above the burners. We strip, degrease and certify the whole system to TR19 Grease so the pull returns, and where the draw has already dropped it is the greased fan we clean to restore it.
A degreased extraction is not just a compliance tick - your chefs feel it on the line. Restored airflow pulls the heat, smoke and grease-laden air off the cookline instead of leaving it in the kitchen, so the space is cooler to work in and the cooking smells stay out of the dining room.
It is measured and evidenced to TR19 Grease, with the fan the tell: when a Bishop's Stortford kitchen goes hot and smoky, it is usually grease unbalancing the impeller, not the filters.
The standard on a commercial canopy. We strip, soak and scrape them back, and flag any that are warped or missing - the gap a warped filter leaves lets grease straight into the plenum.
Common on lighter lines and older canopies, and quick to clog solid. We clean what you run and advise where a baffle filter would serve a heavy frying line better.
On enclosed or recirculating systems. We service the stages, check the seals and tell you what needs replacing rather than cleaning.
Many cooklines carry a wet-chemical system built into the canopy. We degrease the filters, canopy and fan without disturbing the nozzles or detection - so you keep both defences.
Where a gas interlock ties the cookline to the extract, we work around it and leave it functioning, so the line cannot fire without the extraction running.
We check and clear accessible fire dampers in the run, so a damper that has to close in a fire is not seized solid with grease.
Real jobs, described by sector and area - never by a client's name.
A canteen on the Stansted side had loaded its canopy and slowed its fan until the kitchen ran hot at the shift change. We stripped and soaked the filters, scraped the canopy and duct, and degreased the fan so the extraction drew properly through the meal service again.
A North Street restaurant's extraction had lost its draw - grease had reached the impeller. We cleaned the fan with the whole system so the airflow that came back was genuine, and left the certificate and photographs.
We check the canopy, filters and fan, gauge the grease loading and how far the pull has dropped, and agree the scope.
The cookline and any fire-suppression system are protected and the area sheeted before work starts.
Filters, canopy, plenum and fan are degreased end to end - twice over where the grease has baked on hard.
You get a dated certificate, before-and-after photographs and a recommended cleaning interval.
By cooking volume - TR19 Grease sets the interval on daily cooking hours, and we fix a next-due date to your grease loading.
The whole system - filters, canopy, plenum, fan and impeller, and the accessible duct. A greased fan is usually the true cause of weak airflow.
No - we work around a wet-chemical system's nozzles and detection without disturbing them.
Yes - North Street and South Street, Jackson Square, the Stansted side, and across Hertfordshire.
Yes - nights, early mornings and closed days at no premium.
The North Street restaurants run flat out on an evening, canopies working over hot lines in a busy market street. A greased fan turns such a kitchen hot and unsafe quickly, so we degrease the whole line to keep the extraction pulling through a full service.
We have stripped, degreased and certified commercial extraction to TR19 Grease since 2001, across Hertfordshire and the UK. On a hard-frying line the job is the same every time: the whole system taken back, the fan balanced, and a certificate that satisfies your insurer and fire risk assessor.
Send us your cookline and frying hours and we will survey, strip, degrease and certify - across Hertfordshire.
