How often should extraction be cleaned?

It depends on cooking volume, but heavy frying usually means quarterly for the canopy and ductwork. Grease in ducts is a fire risk, and most insurers make the cleaning record a condition of cover.

Can it be done outside service hours?

Almost always, and it usually has to be. Deep cleans are typically overnight or on a closing day.

Do I get documentation?

You should. A cleaning record with dates is what turns a clean into evidence for the EHO and the insurer — without it the work happened but cannot be shown.

Restaurant Cleaning in Ireland

A restaurant kitchen is inspected, and that changes what cleaning means. The work is documented, done to a schedule, and covers the places an inspector looks first — behind the line, under the equipment, and the extraction canopy. Front of house matters for the customer; back of house is what the EHO closes you over.
