Try the cost calculatorChester-le-Street cooks for a market town in the Vale of Durham with a Test-match ground. The restaurants of Front Street and the hospitality kitchens of the Riverside drive their canopies hard, and the filters, plenum and fan take on grease quicker than a nightly clean can shift it.
Within a County Durham food economy of 4,631 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.
Swapping filters treats the symptom; grease in the canopy, plenum and fan is what actually strangles the airflow. Clean the lot together and the cookline captures again, the kitchen runs cooler, and the fire risk over a live line comes down with it.
It is measured and evidenced to TR19 Grease, with the fan the tell: when a Chester-le-Street 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 Riverside hospitality kitchen had loaded its canopy and slowed its fan cooking to full stands on match days. We stripped and soaked the filters, scraped the canopy and duct, and degreased the fan so the extraction drew properly again.
A Front Street fish bar's extraction had gone weak - grease had reached the impeller. We cleaned the fan with the whole system so the airflow that returned was genuine, and left the certificate and photographs.
We check the canopy, filters and fan, note the airflow and grease loading, and agree scope around your service.
The cookline and any fire-suppression system are protected before work starts, and the area sheeted.
Filters, canopy, plenum and extract fan degreased - a two-stage clean where the grease is baked on.
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 - Front Street and the Market Hall, the Riverside ground and the Drum estate, and across County Durham.
Yes - nights, early mornings and closed days at no premium.
The Riverside hospitality kitchens and the Front Street fish bars are among the hardest-worked cooklines in Chester-le-Street. Left to build, that grease turns a kitchen hot and becomes a fire risk over the flame, so we degrease the whole line to keep the extraction pulling.
We have stripped, degreased and certified commercial extraction to TR19 Grease since 2001, across County Durham 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 County Durham.
