Trowbridge · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Trowbridge restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Trowbridge
Trowbridge fries across the county town - the Fore Street and Castle Street cooklines cook from open to close, and the Silver Street and Church Street kitchens run alongside.
The venues change but the grease does not. From Church Street to Manvers Street and the suburban parades, the takeaways and grill houses set the toughest test any extraction canopy meets. Trowbridge rates hundreds of food premises, most of them frying hard in a tight footprint.
The kit the Church Street and Manvers Street cooks work beneath - canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan - is what we degrease. Done right it pulls the way it should, clearing heat and steam, backed by a current TR19 Grease certificate, and it runs cooler too, because a clean Trowbridge fan is not working against a greased one to move the same air.
The system
Extraction cleaning is the accessible heart of the system - the kit above a hard-frying Church Street 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 Manvers Street 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 Trowbridge 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 Trowbridge's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Trowbridge 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 Church 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 Church 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 Manvers Street system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Trowbridge
We are under Trowbridge's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A Shires Shopping Centre food unit in Trowbridge 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 Trowbridge service.
A clean canopy and fan pull heat and steam off a hard Church Street 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 Manvers Street 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 Church Street or Manvers Street kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
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 Manvers Street takeaway canopies that have run hot for years.
Yes - from Church Street, Manvers Street and the city centre out to the suburbs, and across the wider Wiltshire.
Yes. Beyond restaurants, Trowbridge has campus catering at Wiltshire College, works catering at the food plant, and centre and hotel kitchens - high-volume systems we clean and certify alongside the hospitality work.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Church Street and Manvers 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. The takeaways and grill houses around Manvers Street and Castle 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.
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 Church Street kitchen - we clean the full run to TR19 and certify it together.
