Fire Safety
Kitchen Extract Fire Safety Cleaning
Professional kitchen extract ductwork cleaning is not just a matter of hygiene; it is also an essential fire safety measure.
A fire risk assessment should document where kitchen extract systems are present and what should be done to control the risk following The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The Order requires measures to reduce the risk of fire and the spread of fire on the premises.
Swiftclean’s kitchen extract cleaning service keeps you compliant with The BESA specification TR19® Grease. This is the leading industry specification that assists in the control of these fire risks by effective management, monitoring, and regular review of grease levels and associated cleaning frequencies.
Fire Damper Testing
Regular fire/smoke damper function testing as well as fire/smoke damper cleaning and maintenance is both a legal requirement and a critical part of building fire safety management. Swiftclean is one of the UK’s leading specialist building services providers offering a fire damper function testing and cleaning service, in accordance with BS 9999. This guidance specifies that all fire dampers should be function tested and cleaned at least every year.
Air Hygiene
Under the Health & Safety at Work Act etc 1974 and the Occupiers Liability Act 1984, there are legal expectations in settings such as stadiums. The leading guidance document concerning the hygiene of ventilation systems is TR19® Air. Recently updated to a specification, it has become the accepted standard for the internal cleanliness of ventilation systems and ductwork cleaning. Swiftclean is a long‑term member of the BESA and has helped draft the TR19® Grease and Air specifications.

Gary Nicholls, MD of Swiftclean, explains the importance of compliance with TR19® Grease for stadiums.
