Cumbria ChamberLegal Requirement in the Lake District
The Fire Safety Reform Act 2005 places legal liability on you as the building owner or manager. Tourist hotspot or not, compliance is mandatory.
Busy Kitchens Build Up Grease Fast
High-volume Lake District kitchens serving back-to-back covers through the tourist season generate significant grease buildup, and need more frequent cleaning.
Your Insurance May Be Void
Your insurer requires TR19-standard cleaning as proof of best practice. Without it, a fire claim could be rejected outright.
TR19 Cleaning in Windermere & the Lake District
TR19 is the UK standard for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning, produced by BESA. It defines exactly how canopies, ductwork, filters, and fans must be cleaned to be legally and insurer-compliant.
The Lake District has one of the highest concentrations of hotels, country house hotels, restaurants, and pubs in the North of England. Many operate at very high volumes through the tourist season, which TR19 classifies as requiring more frequent cleaning, often every 6 months rather than annually. A BESCA VHR accredited contractor is required to issue the certificate that your insurer will accept. We cover the whole Lake District from our Ulverston base.
If your extraction system in the Lake District hasn't been cleaned to TR19 standard, you may be in breach of fire safety law right now, and your insurance policy may be invalid.
Maximum grease deposit permitted under TR19. High-volume Lake District kitchens can reach this threshold faster than you'd expect.
Recommended cleaning frequency for moderate-to-high-use hotel and restaurant kitchens. Many Lake District operations qualify for this schedule.
TR19 compliance certificate issued promptly as the clean, ready for your insurer, fire officer, or hotel group compliance team.
Everything Included: Nothing Left Uncleaned
Our full TR19 clean covers every component of your system. Partial cleaning won't meet compliance.
Canopy & Hood Clean
Full degreasing of the kitchen canopy and hood, the first point of grease capture in your system.
Ductwork Degreasing
Full internal duct clean from canopy to discharge, where the most dangerous grease accumulates.
Filter Cleaning
Grease filters removed, chemically cleaned and reinstalled, or replaced if beyond service life.
Fan & Motor Clean
Extract fan and motor thoroughly cleaned to maintain efficiency and eliminate fire risk at the terminal.
Grease Micron Readings
We measure deposits across the entire system. TR19 requires readings below 200µm, and every reading is recorded.
TR19 Compliance Certificate
Full written report and certificate issued on completion. Show your insurer, fire inspector, or hotel group with confidence.
Why Lake District Businesses Choose Hy5
The Accreditation Hotel Groups Demand
BESA VHR membership is the accreditation referenced by UK insurers and required by most hotel group compliance frameworks. Without it, a certificate doesn't hold up when it matters.
Meets Hotel Group & Chain Requirements
CHAS Elite is the highest level of contractor health and safety pre-qualification available. It meets the approved supplier requirements of most hotel group and hospitality chain procurement frameworks operating in the Lake District.

"I can actually hear the kitchen extract system working and the extract above the dishwash nearly pulled the sheet of blue roll out my hand when I was showing the management team how effective the clean was!
