Extraction Systems
No matter how efficient the extraction system, a build up of grease and other flammable substances in ductwork can become a significant fire hazard. The devastating effects of any subsequent fire on a business are enormous.
Most people will recall the Heathrow terminal 1 fire in 1997 and the closure of South Mimms Services on the M25 in 1999, both of these fires were spread through the extraction system ductwork from catering establishments. Regardless of the size of your business, cleanliness of the extraction system is too important to ignore.
We are increasingly dealing with companies whose insurance company requires evidence that a fire risk assessment has been carried out and evidence is provided to show that the risk assessment has included the grease extract ventilation system and that the system has been cleaned by a professional contractor on an annual basis as a minimum requirement.
