Laundry Duct Cleaning in Shropshire & Chester
Professional Laundry Duct Cleaning
Laundry duct cleaning is essential for preventing fire hazards and maintaining efficient airflow in any setting that uses commercial tumble dryers. At Extract Compliance Ltd, we provide fully certified laundry duct cleaning in Shropshire and Chester, helping care homes, hotels, hospitals and launderettes stay safe and compliant.
Lint, fibres and debris quickly build up in laundry extract systems. Without regular cleaning, these materials can easily ignite, leading to costly and dangerous fires. Our team delivers a fast, efficient service that clears these risks — and meets TR19 standards.
Poorly maintained laundry duct systems are a leading cause of commercial fires, especially in care homes and hospitality settings. Aside from the fire risk, clogged ducts cause inefficient drying, wasted energy, and poor air quality.
Our laundry duct cleaning Chester and Shropshire teams work across a wide range of industries, using TR19-compliant methods and industrial-grade tools.
