Canopy cleaning in Ingrams Green, done properly

Every canopy we clean in Ingrams Green gets the same treatment: filters out, plenum scraped and degreased, then the canopy cleaned inside and out. You get photos of the canopy before and after. We are often asked to deal with drips from the canopy onto the range and a filter housing caked in grease, across canopy light fittings, grease gutters and baffle filters.

Work in a small place like Ingrams Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.

The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Between visits

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:

  • Never run the range with a filter out
  • Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
  • Run the extract the whole time you are cooking
  • Check filters aren’t leaving gaps

The kitchen is handed back clean, with the sheeting gone and the waste removed. Filters are back in place and seated properly ready for the next service.

Do not let canopy gutters fill to the brim. Overflowing troughs are the usual cause of drips onto the range, so make emptying them part of the closing routine.

Ingrams Green: your questions answered

Can you work in Ingrams Green outside opening hours?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Ingrams Green needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Is Ingrams Green within the area you cover?

Yes, Ingrams Green is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.

Is canopy cleaning enough for TR19?

On its own, a canopy clean is a useful extra rather than a full TR19 clean. Your report lists exactly what was cleaned so nobody mistakes it for a full system clean.

Do you clean canopies in all kinds of kitchens?

Wall and island canopies, long cooking-line hoods and small single hoods. The method is the same: filters out, plenum and housing cleaned, canopy degreased inside and out.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

Why does grease run off the canopy edge?

Normally because the troughs or gutters are full, or the plenum is overloaded. Grease has nowhere else to go, so it runs down and drips, and condensation can carry it too. A canopy clean sorts it out.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Are the filters cleaned too?

The filters are removed, cleaned and put back. We check each one seats properly, because gaps let grease through.

Canopy cleaning in Ingrams Green: the local picture

Environmental health officers from Chichester council inspect food businesses in Ingrams Green. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Ingrams Green is covered by West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.

Why act early in Ingrams Green

Fresh grease comes off far more easily than old. Heat from the range bakes canopy grease into a hard, dark layer, which makes a later clean slower and harder. In a place like Ingrams Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

What your team can do, and what needs us

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.

The process

Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Ingrams Green run smoothly.

  1. First the canopy is surveyed, by photos or in person.
  2. The range is turned off and allowed to cool before we cover it.
  3. We remove the grease filters and clean the plenum and filter housing.
  4. The canopy is cleaned inside and out, including troughs and seams.
  5. Clean filters are refitted and before and after photos go into your report.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Getting a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

What we work on in Ingrams Green

  • Wall canopies
  • Canopy light fittings
  • Grease gutters
  • Island canopies
  • Plenum chambers

Different parts, different methods

Wall canopies

Long wall canopies often have several filter banks. Each section’s plenum and housing is cleaned in turn, with photos for each.

Plenums and filter housings

A plenum that hasn’t been cleaned for a long time can hold a thick layer of grease. We remove thick grease by hand, then degrease.
