Wrexham · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Wrexham restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Wrexham
Wrexham fries across the city - the Hope Street and Regent Street cooklines cook from open to close, and the Yorke Street and High Street kitchens run alongside.
The kitchens differ, the grease is the same. Along Chester Street, High Street and the parades beyond, the grill houses and takeaways put an extraction canopy through the roughest work it will ever take. Of the close to 1,000 food premises rated in Wrexham, most are frying in a cramped back kitchen.
We degrease exactly what the Chester Street and High 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 Wrexham 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 Chester 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 High Street service. The work meets the TR19 Grease standard, with before-and-after evidence and a certificate, so the system pulls properly and your Wrexham 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 Wrexham's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Wrexham 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 Chester 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 Chester 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 High Street system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Wrexham
We are under Wrexham's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A shopping-centre coffee house in Wrexham had grease on the extract intake near the panini grills, leaving a faint haze over the servery. We ran a hot chemical flush through the plenum and reset the fan, clearing the haze and restoring the extraction, with an updated fire-safety certificate for the centre management. A six-monthly service was booked.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Wrexham service.
A clean canopy and fan clear the heat and steam off a hard Chester 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 High Street takeaways need it more often than a daytime cafe - and your certificate sets the interval.
Inspect the Wrexham 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 Chester Street or High Street kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
It can. An inspection covers the physical condition of the premises, ventilation included, so a grease-laden canopy or fan over a Hope Street cookline can count against your score.
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 High Street takeaway canopies that have run hot for years.
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 Chester Street kitchen - we clean the full run to TR19 and certify it together.
Yes. Beyond restaurants, Wrexham has campus catering at Wrexham University, production kitchens at the Wrexham Maelor Hospital, and stadium and hotel kitchens - high-volume systems we clean and certify alongside the hospitality work.
Yes. The takeaways and grill houses around High Street and Regent 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.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Chester Street and High 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.
