The HVCA warns that a poorly maintained kitchen extract ductwork is a huge fire risk but says you cannot be sure your insurance company will pay up if a fire is traced back to grease laden ductwork. Increasingly, insurance companies are rejecting fire damage claims and refusing to pay out because having the extraction system cleaned is usually a condition of their policies. Changes to Fire Regulations in 2005 placed a heavy responsibility on owners to ensure risk assessments have been carried out in their buildings including identification of potential ignition sources: failure to do so can lead to hefty fines and possible prison sentences. The HSE take the view that kitchen extractg systems are "Local Exhaust Ventilation" (LEV) systems and fall under the requirements which state that such installations must be inspected and recommissioned at intervals no greater than 14 months. Copies of the HVCA's "Guide to Good Practice - Internal Cleanliness of Ventilation Systems (TR19) is available at a cost of £60 from the HVCA Publications Unit in Penrith on 01768 860405 or visit their website.
