Bromsgrove · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Bromsgrove restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Bromsgrove
Bromsgrove fries hard along Worcester Road, the High Street and Birmingham Road, where takeaways, curry houses and cafes run their extraction flat out through every service.
The settings vary, the grease does not. Across Aston Fields, Charford and the suburban strips, the takeaways and grill houses run the single hardest test an extraction canopy faces. Bromsgrove rates hundreds of food premises, most of them frying in a tight footprint.
What the Aston Fields and Charford cooks labour under - canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan - is exactly what we degrease. Cleaned right it draws as it was meant to, clearing heat and steam, carrying a current TR19 Grease certificate and running cooler, since a clean Bromsgrove fan no longer battles a greased one to shift the same air.
The system
Extraction cleaning is the accessible heart of the system - the kit above a hard-frying Aston Fields cookline that does the work and shows the grease first.
We strip and degrease the canopy inside and out, clean or replace the baffle filters, and degrease the extractor fan and its housing - the part that quietly loses performance as grease loads the blades over a hard Charford service. Cleaned to the TR19 Grease standard, with before-and-after evidence and a certificate, so the system pulls properly and your Bromsgrove fire risk assessment and insurer have the record they ask for.
Filters
The standard for commercial cooklines: they trap grease and slow flame spread. Cleaned, or replaced when warped or corroded.
Common on older or lighter setups; they clog fast and pass grease through if neglected. We flag where a baffle upgrade is overdue.
On the odour and emission-controlled systems near Bromsgrove's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Bromsgrove cookline's extraction and its fire protection are one system - and a clean is the moment to check the join.
Nozzles aimed at the canopy and cooking points; grease build-up around them on a busy Aston Fields line is exactly what they exist to fight. We clean around them without disturbing the system.
Where the gas shuts off if extraction fails on an Aston Fields line, we work without tripping it - and flag it if it is not behaving.
Checked for the grease that would stop them closing - a quiet failure point on a Charford system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Bromsgrove
We are under Bromsgrove's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A garden centre café in Bromsgrove had a heavy grease layer over the filters and extract duct, a real fire risk sitting above the pizza oven. We cleaned the filters and duct back to bare metal, degreased the fan housing and refitted the cleaned filters. The canopy and duct came up clean and safe with noticeably stronger extraction, backed by a signed certificate. We flagged a worn part to the head chef for their maintenance records.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Bromsgrove service.
A clean canopy and fan pull heat and steam off a hard Aston Fields cookline faster, so the kitchen sits cooler and the fan draws less to shift the same air. A greased system is a fire risk, a failed inspection point and a comfort problem all at once. How often it is needed follows how hard you cook - the Charford takeaways far more than a daytime cafe - and your certificate fixes the interval.
Inspect the Bromsgrove canopy, filters and fan, agree scope and frequency.
Remove filters and access panels, protect the cookline.

Questions
It depends how hard the kitchen runs. Under TR19 Grease, heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day points to roughly every three months, moderate to every six, light to every twelve. A busy Aston Fields or Charford kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
Yes. Beyond restaurants, Bromsgrove has the school, hospital and town-centre kitchens we clean and certify - high-volume systems we clean and certify alongside the hospitality work.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Aston Fields and Charford are busy through the evening, so we work overnight, early mornings or on closing days, at no extra charge for out-of-hours work.
Extraction cleaning covers the canopy, filters and fan; where the concealed duct run behind them is also loaded - as it often is in a tight Aston Fields kitchen - we clean the full run to TR19 and certify it together.
It can. An inspection covers the physical condition of the premises, ventilation included, so a grease-laden canopy or fan over a High Street cookline can count against your score.
Yes. The takeaways and grill houses around Charford and Worcester Road run a canopy, filters and a fan and often carry a heavy grease load for their size. We clean and certify them the same way as a full restaurant system.
Every clean finishes with a dated TR19 certificate, before-and-after photographs and a condition report - the evidence an Aston Fields operator's insurer or fire risk assessor expects to see.
Local knowledge
Just north of the town the Lickey Incline climbs two miles at a gradient of 1 in 37.7, the steepest sustained stretch on the British main line, and for over a century banking engines were stationed at Bromsgrove to push heavy trains up it. The town runs on food now as much as freight, and its busy kitchens coat their canopies and extract systems in grease every service. Left in place that grease feeds flame and starves airflow, so we strip, degrease and certify extraction from the filter to the fan to the TR19 grease standard. The report shows every stretch of duct before and after.
