Hopkins points out that flue cleaning is essential to help prevent fires in extraction ductwork and that many insurance companies are aware of this and insist on at least annual cleaning by specialists - some offering a discount if it is done more often.
Hopkins adds that "Although previously range servicing companies cleaned ductwork by scraping out grease that could be reached from access holes, meaning only 2-3 metres of grease was removed whereas a typical range has more like 12 metres of ductwork...Hopkins now has similar equipment to specialist companies - meaning the whole system can be cleaned."
