Kitchen Environments

Hygiene treatment in commercial kitchens falls into three main categories: Extraction Systems, Catering Equipment and Main Structure.

Kitchen Extract System Cleaning

Greasy, deposits left in ductwork will attract fibrous build-ups and will become baked on, making removal extremely difficult and time consuming. Air flow efficiency can be seriously impaired by deposits, increasing the load and hence drawing more power.

 

 

All areas which if not regularly, professionally, cleaned and maintained can quickly become a fire risk. Bacteria developing in grease deposits create a hazard to health. Business efficiency and profitability are also bound to suffer. Neglect of grease extractors results in the accumulation of fats, oily deposits and fibrous particles in the system, the major cause of the spread of fire in catering establishments. The warm greasy environment is an ideal breeding ground for bacteria and cockroaches.

Failure to ensure regular cleaning of kitchen grease extract systems can invalidate buildings insurance cover. We are aware of many cases where insurers are refusing to pay out on millions of pound worth of claims following fires where the insured has not complied with the warrantees on their buildings insurance policies regarding regular cleaning of the grease extract systems. Swiftclean can provide service contracts for peace of mind.

The Oct 2005 Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order comes into effect in April 2006. This places the onus on building opperators to apoint a responsible person for fire safety and this responsible person needs to have a fire risk assessment carried out. Such a risk assessment should include any kitchen extract system within or passing through a building and should identify fire risks and ways of removing or reducing the risks. Failure to carry out a risk assessment and precautionary actions identified as risk reduction measures could, in the event of injury or death of an individual during a fire, lead to prosecution of individuals and companies.
