Why is Kitchen Extract Cleaning Important?
Kitchen extract cleaning is a vital service for businesses operating in the food industry. Over time, grease, fats, and other debris can accumulate in the kitchen extract system, which includes the hoods, ducts, fans, and filters. This build-up can present a significant fire risk if not addressed regularly, as grease is highly flammable and can ignite when exposed to heat. A dirty extract system can also lead to poor air quality, causing bad odours and potential health hazards for your staff and customers.
The build-up of grease and grime can clog the ventilation system, reducing its efficiency and making it harder to maintain proper airflow. This can result in the system working harder to clear smoke, steam, and cooking fumes, leading to increased energy consumption and higher operating costs. Investing in regular kitchen extract cleaning in Manchester can help ensure that your kitchen operates safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with health and safety regulations.

What Does Kitchen Extract Cleaning Involve?
At Swiftclean, we follow a comprehensive process for kitchen extract cleaning in Manchester, ensuring that your system is thoroughly cleaned and fully compliant. Our service includes:
- Initial Inspection – We begin with a thorough inspection of your kitchen extract system, allowing us to assess the level of grease/dirt (we measure this with our Wet Film Thickness testers). This will give us the pre-clean micron levels and help to work out future cleaning frequencies. It also allows us to determine the most appropriate cleaning method and check that we can access all areas of the system.
- Cleaning – We carefully clean the components of your kitchen extract system, including the filters, fan, ducts and risers (normally working from canopy to exhaust). Each component is cleaned using specialised equipment and/or cleaning agents designed to break down grease and dirt.
- Final Inspection – After cleaning and reassembly, we carry out a final inspection of the system. We again use the Wet Film Thickness testers, (we are looking for below 50 microns to comply with BESA TR/19 Grease). We check for any remaining debris and confirm that all components are functioning properly, ensuring that the system is safe, efficient, and compliant with regulations. Our office team sends out a post clean report with pre and post clean micron readings and photographs.
Our Manchester kitchen extract cleaning service ensures that your kitchen is not only safe but also efficient. We’ll thoroughly clean your extract system, helping you reduce the risk of fire hazards, improve ventilation, and maintain a hygienic environment for your staff and customers.

Your legal responsibilities
The Health & Safety Executive and industry and insurance guidance and regulations stipulate that kitchen extract systems should be kept clean to minimise fire and other risks.

It is your responsibility to ensure that kitchen grease extract systems (canopies, filters, ductwork, risers and fans) in all commercial kitchens and the like are inspected as required by your buildings insurance policy, in accordance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order and the Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulations.
