Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Peel Common
Canopy cleaning is part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but a canopy can also need cleaning on its own, between full system cleans. In that case, the report makes clear what was and wasn’t cleaned, so your records stay accurate. Typical jobs include a greasy hood noticed by an inspector and grease channels that no longer drain, on canopy light fittings, wall canopies and island canopies.
In a village or hamlet like Peel Common, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Signs you need canopy cleaning in Peel Common
Filters that are missing, damaged or badly seated leave gaps. The plenum and housing behind them then take far more grease than they should, which shows up as heavy deposits when the filters come out.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Greasy streaks across the canopy
- Grease channels that no longer drain
- Heavy deposits behind the grease filters
- Grease filters blocking between washes
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Peel Common is Gosport War Memorial Hospital, about 2.8 miles south-east.

Canopy cleaning around Peel Common
Sea air reaches Peel Common, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. There are about 37 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 21 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Peel Common, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Wherever there’s a canopy over the cooking, its hood and plenum collect grease with every service. Kitchens in Peel Common get their food hygiene inspections from Gosport council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Peel Common Mission Church or elsewhere in Peel Common, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. For schools such as Peel Common Junior School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a few hours for most canopies. The timing of a visit to Peel Common is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We start by checking the canopy, filters and plenum.
- Cooking equipment is left to cool and the area under the canopy protected.
- With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned back.
- We degrease the canopy shell, its seams and the grease troughs.
- Clean filters are refitted and before and after photos go into your report.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Peel Common: your questions answered
Which environmental health team covers Peel Common?
In Peel Common, it’s Gosport council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you cover smaller places like Peel Common?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Are the filters cleaned too?
Filters are removed so we can clean the plenum and housing, then cleaned and refitted. Between cleans, a filter exchange service can keep them in good order.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How long is a canopy clean?
Allow an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not usually. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
What a clean won’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Weak extraction caused by a failing fan motor
- Grease filters too damaged to refit (they need replacing)
- Electrical faults in the canopy
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- Grease gutters
- Wall canopies
- Baffle filters
- Island canopies
- Canopy light fittings
- Plenum chambers
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep the fan on through service
- Report new drips or smells from the canopy
- Check filters are not leaving gaps
- Do not scrape the canopy with metal tools
The report gives a recommended next clean date. It reflects how long the kitchen cooks and how much grease we removed, in line with BESA guidance.
Run the extract for as long as anything is cooking. Turning the fan off early lets vapour settle on the hood.
Different parts, different methods
Wall canopies
At the back of the canopy, behind the filters, grease builds up unseen. We remove the filters to reach it and degrease it properly.
Island canopies
Everything about an island canopy is on show, so the finish matters. We degrease it thoroughly and photograph the result.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
