Eastbourne · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Eastbourne restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Eastbourne
Eastbourne fries along the coast - the Terminus Road and Grand Parade cooklines cook from open to close, and the Grove Road and South Street kitchens run alongside.
The venues change but the grease does not. From Cornfield Road to Meads and the suburban parades, the takeaways and grill houses set the toughest test any extraction canopy meets. Eastbourne rates around 1,200 food premises, most of them frying hard in a tight footprint.
We degrease exactly what the Cornfield Road and Meads cooks stand under - the canopy, the baffle filters and the extractor fan. Cleaned properly the system draws as designed, clearing heat and steam, carrying a current TR19 Grease certificate, and running cooler, since a clean Eastbourne fan is not straining against grease to shift the same air.
The system
Extraction cleaning is the accessible heart of the system - the kit above a hard-frying Cornfield Road cookline that does the work and shows the grease first.
The canopy is stripped inside and out, the baffle filters cleaned or renewed, and the extractor fan and housing degreased - it is the fan that slips quietly as grease weighs its blades through a hard Meads service. All of it is taken to the TR19 Grease standard, with before-and-after evidence and a certificate, so the system draws as designed and your Eastbourne fire risk assessment and insurer hold the record they expect.
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 Eastbourne's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
An Eastbourne 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 Cornfield Road 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 a Cornfield Road 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 Meads system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Eastbourne
We are under Eastbourne's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A holiday park restaurant in Eastbourne had sand and debris clogging the internal plenum drainage paths. We vacuumed it out and ran a steam-based duct degrease, certifying the system for peak-season demand. The work was carried out under the holiday park's safety permit.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Eastbourne service.
A clean canopy and fan pull heat and steam off a hard Cornfield Road 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 Meads takeaways far more than a daytime cafe - and your certificate fixes the interval.

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 Cornfield Road or Meads kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
Every clean finishes with a dated TR19 certificate, before-and-after photographs and a condition report - the evidence a Cornfield Road operator's insurer or fire risk assessor expects to see.
Yes - from Cornfield Road, Meads and the city centre out to the suburbs, and across the wider East Sussex.
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 Cornfield Road 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 Terminus Road cookline can count against your score.
Yes. The takeaways and grill houses around Meads and Grove 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.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Cornfield Road and Meads are busy through the evening, so we work overnight, early mornings or on closing days, at no extra charge for out-of-hours work.
