What does TR19 actually require? +
TR19 (current edition: TR19 Grease, 2019) requires the entire extract system to be cleaned to a defined grease level (below 200μm WFT), with documentary evidence and a certificate produced after each clean. Frequency is set by usage hours.
Is TR19 a legal requirement? +
TR19 itself is a technical specification, not a statute. But the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 places a legal duty on the responsible person to manage fire risk — and TR19 is the recognised industry standard for evidencing that the extract system is not a fire risk.
Will my insurance pay out without a TR19 certificate? +
It depends on the policy wording. Most commercial kitchen insurance policies now reference TR19 (or the BESA grease specification) directly. Without a current certificate, claims for kitchen fire damage are routinely refused or reduced.
