Llanelli · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Llanelli restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Llanelli
Llanelli fries across the tinplate town - the Stepney Street and Cowell Street cooklines cook from open to close, and the Market Street and Station Road kitchens run alongside.
The kitchens differ, the grease is the same. Along Station Road, Park Street and the parades beyond, the grill houses and takeaways put an extraction canopy through the roughest work it will ever take. Of the hundreds of food premises rated in Llanelli, most are frying in a cramped back kitchen.
We degrease exactly what the Station Road and Park Street 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 Llanelli 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 Station Road 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 Park Street service. Cleaned to the TR19 Grease standard, with before-and-after evidence and a certificate, so the system pulls properly and your Llanelli 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 Llanelli's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Llanelli 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 Station 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 Station 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 Park Street system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Llanelli
We are under Llanelli's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A St Elli Shopping Centre food unit in Llanelli had grease on the extract fan letting cooking smells drift into the mall. We degreased the fan blades and housing, rebalanced the impeller and restored the pull, clearing the smells and returning the air quality. The centre's facilities team signed the fire-safety record.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Llanelli service.
With the canopy and fan clean, heat and steam clear off a hard Station Road cookline faster, the kitchen runs cooler, and the fan works less to move the same air. Leave it greased and you have a fire risk, a failed inspection point and an uncomfortable kitchen together. Frequency follows the cooking load - the Park Street takeaways need it more often than a daytime cafe - and the certificate sets the next date.
Inspect the Llanelli 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 Station Road or Park Street kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
Yes. The takeaways and grill houses around Park Street and Cowell Street 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.
It can. An inspection covers the physical condition of the premises, ventilation included, so a grease-laden canopy or fan over a Stepney Street cookline can count against your score.
Every clean finishes with a dated TR19 certificate, before-and-after photographs and a condition report - the evidence a Station Road operator's insurer or fire risk assessor expects to see.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Station Road and Park Street are busy through the evening, so we work overnight, early mornings or on closing days, at no extra charge for out-of-hours work.
Yes - from Station Road, Park Street and the city centre out to the suburbs, and across the wider South Wales.
Yes. Where a filter is warped, corroded or a mesh type that keeps passing grease, we say so and swap it - common on the older Park Street takeaway canopies that have run hot for years.
