Premium self-cleaning ovens, often marketed as pyrolytic, catalytic, or steam-cleaning models, promise easier maintenance. However, when it comes to professional oven cleaning, these ovens often require a slightly different approach to ensure the manufacturer’s finish and components remain protected.

Understanding Self-Cleaning Features
- Pyrolytic ovens use very high heat to burn food residue into ash, which can then be wiped away.
- Catalytic ovens have special liners that absorb and break down grease during normal cooking.
- Steam-cleaning ovens use water vapour to loosen grime for easier wiping.
While these systems can reduce everyday build-up, they don’t always tackle baked-on grease, glass door residue, or hard-to-reach parts such as hinges and behind liners.
Why Professional Cleaning Still Matters
Professional oven cleaning goes beyond the self-cleaning cycle, removing stubborn carbon deposits, grease around seals, and dirt in areas the oven’s own system can’t reach. For premium models, cleaners use non-abrasive, manufacturer-approved methods to avoid damaging specialist coatings or electronic components.
Special Treatment for Premium Models
- Avoiding harsh chemicals on catalytic liners
- Protecting sensitive temperature sensors and seals
- Cleaning removable parts, trays, and glass panels separately
- Checking for and preserving any protective coatings
