Merton TR19 Kitchen Extraction Fan & Air Duct Cleaning

Why Merton Kitchens Need TR19 Extraction & Duct Cleaning

Grease-laden deposits inside canopies, extraction fans and ductwork are a significant fire load in commercial kitchens. TR19 is the widely accepted methodology for measuring, removing and proving grease removal so you can reduce fire risk, protect insurance cover and satisfy EHOs and landlords. In Merton—spanning Wimbledon Village conservation streets, town-centre restaurants and delivery-led ghost kitchens—TR19 compliance helps you:

• Protect policies with measurable deposit readings and an insurer-recognised TR19 certificate.
• Control odour & heat by restoring capture efficiency—vital near homes, schools and healthcare settings.
• Improve airflow & energy performance by lowering resistance and stabilising fan loads.
• Speed up audits with structured photographic reports and clear remedial logs for landlords and brands.
• Align ventilation hygiene with HACCP verification and SFG20 maintenance schedules.

EC Cleaners integrates TR19 Grease cleaning with SFG20 maintenance alignment, DW/172 ventilation design considerations, gas & fire safety assurance and workplace health & safety alignment to keep Merton kitchens safe, insurable and efficient.

How Our TR19 Cleaning Process Works

Step-by-step

1. Survey & Risk Assessment – Confirm layout, isolation, access routes and RAMS.
2. Protection & Containment – Sheeting, floor protection and waste capture to prevent contamination.
3. Canopy & Filter Degrease – Alkaline foams, agitation and hot-wash of removable baffles/mesh.
4. Fan Cleaning – Open/clean housing & impeller; adjust/balance; check belts.
5. Duct Cleaning – Mechanical brushing, scraping & wet vac; install access doors where required.
6. Verification – Record pre/post readings at representative test points.
7. Reinstatement – Reassemble, run functional checks and remove protections.
8. Reporting & Certification – Photographic report, remedial log and TR19 certificate issued.

What You Receive: Evidence & Certification

• TR19 Certificate listing systems cleaned, dates and outcomes.
• Photographic report with before/after images, access locations and annotations.

Benefits You Can Quantify

Neighbour-friendly odour control

Cleaner ducts and balanced impellers improve capture and cut nuisance odours—key for residential conservation streets in Wimbledon Village and around Morden & Mitcham estates.

Audit readiness & landlord approvals

Structured reports reduce friction with freeholders/managing agents and brand auditors, keeping multi-site groups moving.

Airflow stability & energy performance

Reduced system resistance stabilises airflow and can lower motor load—valuable for long-duty delivery hubs and school/healthcare kitchens.

Challenges in Merton Kitchens

• Conservation & heritage constraints in Wimbledon Village limit external alterations; compliant internal access doors are often essential for full-length cleaning.
• Stacked risers in mansion blocks require strategic access planning, containment and precise RAMS.
• Railway-adjacent sites (Raynes Park/Colliers Wood) need careful noise/odour control for neighbours.
• Event spikes during the Wimbledon tennis fortnight demand out-of-hours scheduling and rapid reporting for insurers.

Pricing, Frequency & Scheduling

Pricing reflects system length/complexity, access, deposit load and working hours. Typical TR19 frequency guidance:

• Heavy use (12–16 hrs/day): every 3 months
• Moderate use (6–12 hrs/day): every 6 months
• Light use (2–6 hrs/day): every 12 months

We’ll survey first, then provide a fixed scope and price around your trading windows and landlord conditions.

Merton Case Example (Illustrative)

Scenario: A neighbourhood bistro near Wimbledon Park reported odour creep and weak capture at weekend peaks. The extract had a long horizontal run above a shared corridor with limited access and mid-run deposits.

Action: Installed new access doors at strategic points, mechanically brushed and wet-vacced the run, degreased canopy and fan housing, balanced the impeller, and recorded pre/post readings to TR19 methodology.

Outcome: Improved airflow, fewer odour complaints and lower motor amperage. The venue received an insurer-recognised certificate and adopted a quarterly schedule aligned to SFG20 and integrated into HACCP verification.
