Extraction Cleaning · Paignton
Paignton fries hard for the season - seafront chippies, harbour cafes, hotel kitchens - loading 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 calculatorPaignton fries for the holiday crowds. The chip shops and cafes of the seafront and harbour, the Torbay Road restaurants and the resort hotels all work their canopies through long summer days, and a holiday frying line lays grease on the filters, up the plenum and into the fan faster than any nightly wipe reaches.
Within a Torbay food economy of 1,518 rated premises, a greased extraction gives itself away as always - a hot, smoky kitchen, a hood no longer drawing at the line, caked filters and a fan sitting as a fire load over the flame. We strip, degrease and certify the whole system to TR19 Grease so the pull returns, and where a season's grease has reached the impeller it is the fan we put right to bring the airflow back.
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 Paignton 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 harbour restaurant had run hot and heavy-aired through the summer. The filters were caked and the roof fan greased and slow; we stripped and soaked the filters, scraped canopy and duct, and degreased the fan so it drew cleanly and safely again for the season's end.
A seafront cafe's extraction had gone weak - grease had reached the impeller. We cleaned the fan with the whole system so the airflow that came back was real, and left a certificate and photographs for the file.
We survey the canopy, filters and fan and gauge the grease loading and how far airflow has dropped.
The line and any suppression system are protected and the area covered before we start.
The whole system is degreased - filters, canopy, plenum and fan - twice over where grease is baked on.
You get the certificate, the before-and-after photographs and a recommended re-clean date.
By cooking volume - TR19 Grease sets the interval by daily cooking hours, heavier through a busy season, and we set a next-due date to your grease loading.
The whole system - filters, canopy, plenum, fan and impeller, and the accessible duct. The greased fan is usually the real cause of weak airflow.
No - we degrease around a wet-chemical system's nozzles and detection without disturbing them.
Yes - the seafront and harbour, Torbay Road and the old town, out to Preston, and across the wider Devon.
Yes - overnight, early mornings and closed days at no extra charge, and around the season.
The seafront chippies trade hardest of anywhere in Paignton, frying without pause through a fine summer's day - and the fastest to load a canopy and unbalance a fan. Left in place, that grease turns the kitchen hot and becomes a fire risk over the fryers. We degrease the whole line so the extraction holds right through the season.
We have stripped, degreased and certified commercial extraction to TR19 Grease since 2001, across Devon 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 Devon.
