About our kitchen extraction cleaning
Our kitchen extract cleaning and maintenance service are completed to the standard set by B&ES (the buildings and engineering services association).
We offer a number of services to help improve the air extraction and safety of commercial and industrial vent systems.
Kitchen Extraction fans that create a vacuum to expel fumes and smoke, can also get clogged by fats, oils and grease. This not only creates the risks of a fire but also significantly diminishes their efficiency. The grease extract systems usually run through the entire length of a building, so unmaintained ductwork can lead to fire spreading through the whole premises putting every occupant in serious risk.
