How it works and Installation
How It Works
Grease Shark is an eco-friendly, safe and automated system that uses advanced biotechnology to prevent grease, fats, and oils (FOGS) from accumulating in your commercial kitchen extract system.
Grease Shark works by introducing fine micro droplets of enzymes under pressure into the kitchen extraction and ventilation systems, ensuring that wherever air flows Grease Shark will follow into ductwork, canopies, filters, fans, silencers and ventilated ceilings. Basically getting to all areas that the FOGS particles land.
The pumping system sprays the enzymes throughout the system at an interval determined by the volume and type of cooking taking place. The spray apparatus is installed within the canopy itself, behind the filters.
The enzymes break down any grease present, and the residue from this process exits with the air flow and is harmlessly absorbed by nature.
What is Grease Shark
Say Goodbye to Manual Kitchen Extract Cleaning.
Grease Shark is an automated system that uses advanced biotechnology to prevent fats, oil and Greases (FOGS) from accumulating in your commercial kitchen extract system.
Grease Shark will spray environmentally friendly biological enzymes into the extraction and ventilation system and dissolve the fats, oil and greases. The broken-down particles are then extracted through the extract fan harmlessly into the atmosphere.
The extract system is therefore TR19 compliant 24/7 by using the Grease Shark system.
Grease Shark Benefits
- 24/7 Monitoring
- No build-up of FOGS
- Reduced Fire Risk
- Professional Certified Cleaning
- All areas of extract system cleaned
- Increased Efficiency
- Improved health & safety of staff, customers and property
Why Use Grease Shark?
Benefits
Grease Shark is an automated system that uses advanced biotechnology to prevent fats, oils and grease (FOGS) from accumulating in your commercial kitchen extract system.
When a kitchen extract system is cleaned manually, FOGS start to build up again immediately post cleaning. Each day the danger/risk levels of fire increase, until it is cleaned again. However, the Grease Shark will continuously keep all the FOGS out of the kitchen extract 24/7, significantly reducing fire risk.
A continuously clean kitchen extract system 24/7. No build-up of FOGS.
Increased Efficiency
A kitchen extract system that is constantly clean, increases efficiency and reduces maintenance. Grease build-up on an extract fan puts pressure on the fan, thus resulting in higher energy consumption, running costs and a shorter life span. The Grease Shark system eliminates these inefficiency.
All Areas of the Extract System are Covered
It is not always possible to access all areas of the extract ducting with manual cleaning in a lot of cases. Our Grease Shark biological enzymes reach every area of the extract ducting because the biological enzymes are pulled through the extract ducting by the airflow from the extract fan the same as the FOGS.
Health & Safety of Staff, Customers, and Property
By installing the Grease Shark system, you are taking a significant step towards making the work environment a safer place for staff members and your customers. Keeping the kitchen extract system clean and free of (FOGS) 24/7 is the only way to reduce the risk of fire in this area.
Insurance Liability
By installing the Grease Shark system, you are taking a significant step towards making the work environment a safer place for staff members and your customers. Keeping the kitchen extract system clean and free of (FOGS) 24/7 is the only way to reduce the risk of fire in this area. As part of our service we inspect your system every 6 weeks and give you a TR19 cert every 6 months.
“With the Grease Shark system automatically cleaning your canopies and extract 24/7, you can finally say goodbye to the conventional canopy cleaning grind.”
With your kitchen operating at full force, grease is certain to build up in your kitchen canopy and extract system. It’s just an unavoidable by-product of cooking. But keeping your kitchen clean is essential to reduce the risk of fire. Safe and efficient operation requires that grease build up is completely and regularly removed. That’s an expensive, time-consuming proposition. Now, there’s a way to make it effortlessly automatic.
Using advanced biological technology, The Grease Shark penetrates every element of a kitchen canopy, extract ducting and extract fan, breaking down grease particles as it goes and putting an end to costly and time-consuming manual scrubbing cleaning. In addition, The Grease Shark removes any residual odours which can be a nuisance for neighbours.
How Grease Shark Works
When a kitchen extract system is cleaned manually grease starts to build up again immediately on use. With, the Grease Shark system installed grease is never allowed to sit in the canopy, ducting or fan. Resulting in a grease free canopy, duct and fan 24/7.
Grease Shark works by introducing fine micro droplets of enzymes into the kitchen extraction and ventilation systems, ensuring that wherever grease particles land in the system the enzymes from Grease Shark will follow into ductwork, canopies, filters, fans, silencers and ventilated ceilings.
This happens at an pre-determined intervals dictated by the volume and type of cooking taking place, the pump engages and sprays the enzymes throughout the system. The spray apparatus is installed within the canopy itself, behind the filters.
The enzymes break down any grease present, and the residue from this process exits with the air flow and is harmlessly absorbed by nature.
Installation
Installation of the Grease Shark system is easy. Pre installation we will do an on-site visit so we will know all we need to know; this ensures when we arrive fully prepared for a fast installation.
Maintenance
As part of our contract option, we call every 6 weeks to refill the enzymes and carry out an inspection. Then every 6 months our BESA TR19 engineers inspect and certify your system as stipulated by your insurance company and provide the relevant TR19 certification.
