Which EHO covers Reading? +

Reading Borough Council EHO.

Is canopy cleaning the same as TR19 compliance? +

No. Canopy cleaning covers the visible hood and filters only. TR19 compliance requires the full extract system — canopy plus ductwork plus fan — cleaned and certificated.

How often should the canopy be cleaned? +

Heavy-use kitchens: weekly or fortnightly. Moderate use: monthly. The canopy and baffles are the most heavily grease-loaded part of the system and need frequent attention.

Can canopy cleaning be done during the day? +

For dark kitchens and shutdown days, yes. For service-running kitchens it is out-of-hours only — chemicals and water do not mix with active prep.
