[C847]Commercial Kitchen For Lease
by E & D Ventilation Solutions, E &

If you run or work in a commercial kitchen you'll be well aware of fire safety rules and what to do in the event of a fire. You'll know the importance of cleaning up after yourself, not just for hygiene reasons, but also from a fire safety point of view. However, are you aware of the necessity to carry out regular “deep cleans”, particularly of the kitchen extraction system?

Dirty, greasy extraction systems can pose a serious fire hazard. It doesn't matter if you have the most powerful filter – they simply cannot eliminate all the vaporised grease that a catering establishment can produce.

By having a regular kitchen extraction system deep clean you can:

• Improve hygiene standards
• Lower insurance premiums
• Improve ventilation for smoke and odour removal
• Dramatically reduce risk of fire
• Comply with Health & Safety regulations

Health and Safety regulations demand that your kitchen is kept meticulously clean, but you won't comply with these rules if you don't deep clean your business's extraction system. This sort of deep clean concentrates on the ductwork. Even though you can't see it, it is vitally important, as this is where all the carbon and solidified cooking oils build up.

Besides the obvious safety requirements, making sure your extraction system is spotless will also lower your insurance systems. A specialist cleaning service will also advise you of the specific access problems your system poses and provide solutions.

How often should you get your extraction system cleaned, though? The Heating & Ventilation Contractors' Association recommends the following based on the hours of usage:

• 12-16 hours per day - clean every 3 months
• 6-12 hours per day - clean every 6 months
• 2-6 hours per day - clean annually

As a business you can't afford to risk not getting your kitchen extraction system frequently cleaned and inspected. To not do it, puts your whole business under threat, but by making it part of your normal monthly or yearly routine, you will reap the benefits.


In the world of catering and hospitality there is no room for inefficiency in staff, facilities and commercial kitchen supplies. This article is a guide to the right products for your commercial kitchen when starting up and stocking up your kitchen. One of the most important parts in the planning of a new kitchen is to ensure that you are purchasing the correct commercial kitchen supplies for your projected volumes and requirements.

The first place to start is placing the surfaces in the empty shell of the kitchen which involve selecting a supplier of kitchen fabrication. These are usually made of stainless steel items which range from centre benches, wall benches, wall shelves and microwave shelves. It is essential that the entire kitchen is planned out with consideration taken for electrical, plumbing and gas connections so that the space is optimised.

Fabrications come in many dimensions and what you select depends on the size and layout of your kitchen. Centre benches are preferable in many kitchens that have significant floor space, however wall benches free up the space in the middle of the kitchen. As with a domestic kitchen but more so, storage and organisation is always an issue. The stakes are higher in a commercial kitchen as poor organisation can lead to lapses in hygiene and health and safety.

After you have selected your fabrications refer back to the kitchen plan to double check your appliances can be accommodated. When deciding what appliances are needed there are a number of key factors to consider. Certain appliances might be helpful but not essential for the current business model so the purchase of them could be postponed until the business plan has been practically tested.

Quality commercial kitchen supplies do not come cheap and this example is a generic example of cost effective planning. A catering company is looking to build on existing events catering bookings and has secured a business loan to upgrade commercial kitchen supplies. Their covers are exclusively set menu banqueting so they have to cook a large amount of the same dish and the planning stages are essential when deciding what commercial kitchen supplies to purchase.

A bratt pan can be purchased which costs 3500GBP and would allow them to cook around 200covers at the same time however this is a high initial outlay which would need to be set against their existing and projected bookings to see if this is required and can offer a return on investment. Otherwise either a cheaper and smaller bratt pan or stove alternative should be considered.

This principle can be applied to all elements of planning your kitchen such as food storage, which should be ample but not excessive as this will encourage overstocking which can cost in expired food. The correct commercial kitchen supplies are essential for running a functional kitchen and there are many reputable suppliers all over the web.
