How is extract cleaning different from canopy cleaning? +

Canopy cleaning covers the visible hood and baffle filters only. Extract cleaning covers the whole system — canopy plus ductwork plus fan. Insurers require the full system cleaned to TR19 specification, not just the canopy.

How often should the extract system be cleaned? +

BESA TR19 sets frequency by usage: heavy use (12+ hours/day) — every 3 months; moderate (6–12 hours/day) — every 6 months; light (<6 hours/day) — every 12 months.

What is a wet film thickness reading? +

A WFT gauge measures the depth of grease residue on the duct interior in microns. TR19 sets thresholds: below 200μm is acceptable; above is non-compliant. We measure before and after and include both in your report.
