Falmouth · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Falmouth restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Falmouth
Falmouth fries across the harbour town - the Market Street and Arwenack Street cooklines cook from open to close, and the Church Street and High Street kitchens run alongside.
Different kitchens, same grease. Around Killigrew Street, Discovery Quay and the outlying strips, the grill houses and takeaways put an extraction canopy through the hardest work it will ever do. With hundreds of food premises rated across Falmouth, most are frying in a cramped space.
We degrease exactly what the Killigrew Street and Discovery Quay 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 Falmouth 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 Killigrew Street cookline that does the work and shows the grease first.
Canopy inside and out, baffle filters cleaned or replaced, and the extractor fan and housing degreased - that last part loses performance quietly as grease builds on the blades through a hard Discovery Quay service. The work meets the TR19 Grease standard, with before-and-after evidence and a certificate, so the system pulls properly and your Falmouth fire risk assessment and insurer have the paperwork 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 Falmouth's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Falmouth 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 Killigrew Street 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 Killigrew Street 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 Discovery Quay system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Falmouth
We are under Falmouth's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A Discovery Quay harbourside restaurant in Falmouth had grease carbonising on the extract fan and cutting the pull through the seafront rush. We ran a manual degrease over the fan and housing, rebalanced the impeller and reset the speed, clearing the haze that had built over the servery. The owner took a recurring quarterly clean.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Falmouth service.
A clean canopy and fan clear the heat and steam off a hard Killigrew Street cookline faster, so the kitchen runs cooler and the fan draws less to move the same air. A greased system is a fire risk, a failed inspection point and a comfort problem at once. Frequency tracks how hard you cook - the Discovery Quay takeaways need it more often than a daytime cafe - and your certificate sets the interval.
Inspect the Falmouth canopy, filters and fan, agree scope and frequency.

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 Killigrew Street or Discovery Quay kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
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 Killigrew Street kitchen - we clean the full run to TR19 and certify it together.
Every clean finishes with a dated TR19 certificate, before-and-after photographs and a condition report - the evidence a Killigrew Street operator's insurer or fire risk assessor expects to see.
It can. An inspection covers the physical condition of the premises, ventilation included, so a grease-laden canopy or fan over a Market Street cookline can count against your score.
Yes - from Killigrew Street, Discovery Quay and the city centre out to the suburbs, and across the wider Cornwall.
Yes. Beyond restaurants, Falmouth has campus catering across Falmouth University, museum catering at the National Maritime Museum, and harbourside and hotel kitchens - high-volume systems we clean and certify alongside the hospitality work.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Killigrew Street and Discovery Quay are busy through the evening, so we work overnight, early mornings or on closing days, at no extra charge for out-of-hours work.
