TR19® Grease Compliance & Reporting

TR19® GREASE is the recognised industry guidance for the cleaning and maintenance of commercial kitchen extraction systems. Many insurers and enforcement bodies expect cleaning to follow these principles.

Proper compliance is not just about cleaning — it’s about evidence. After each extraction clean, Ventra Services provides:

Pre - and post-clean photographs
Notes on system condition
A clear compliance report
Certificate of hygiene for your records

This documentation supports insurance, audits, and fire risk assessments.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a commercial kitchen extraction system be cleaned?

This depends on kitchen usage:

Heavy-use kitchens: every 3 months
Medium-use kitchens: every 6 months
Light-use kitchens: every 12 months

We assess this during the survey and recommend the correct interval.

Is extraction cleaning a legal requirement?

While not a specific law, most insurance policies require extraction systems to be properly maintained. Failure to do so can invalidate cover.

Can’t we just clean the filters ourselves?

Filters are only one part of the system. The highest fire risk usually sits inside ductwork and fans, which require specialist access and equipment.

Do you provide TR19 reports and certificates?

Yes. Every clean includes photographic evidence and a compliance report.

Do you work overnight or out of hours?

Yes. We regularly work evenings and nights to avoid disrupting kitchen operations.

Do you cover all of London?

Yes. We cover North, South, East, West, and Central London.

Can you repair or replace parts of the system?

Yes. Repairs, maintenance, and replacements are available as add-ons where required.
