How we handle canopy cleaning in Setley
Has the canopy started to drip or look neglected? Send us a photo of the hood and filters when you ring 0345 646 2711 or email us, and you will get a fixed price, typically within one working day. If you are dealing with a greasy hood noticed by an inspector and smoke hanging around the canopy during service, we can help, from island canopies, canopy light fittings and wall canopies onwards.
Work in a small place like Setley starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the visit works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Setley before we set off.
- We look at the canopy, filters and troughs first.
- Once the kitchen has closed, the cooking line is cooled and sheeted.
- With the filters removed, the plenum and filter channels are cleaned.
- Inside and out, the hood and its troughs are cleaned.
- Filters are refitted, the area cleaned down and the photo report put together.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Grease troughs and gutters
Drips from the canopy edge often start in a full gutter. Cleaning it clears the drip.
Plenums and filter housings
Behind the grease filters is the plenum. It catches whatever gets past the filters, so it’s scraped and degreased on every canopy clean.
What we are called out for in Setley
Any canopy in Setley that is used for cooking will gather grease in the end. That grease is fuel sitting right above the heat, which is why a flare-up near a dirty canopy is so dangerous.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
- A hood coated in old grease
- An EHO comment about the canopy
- Overflowing grease troughs and gutters
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Nicholas or anywhere around Setley, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
Before you book anyone
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Keep the fan on through service
- Make sure filters sit tight in the housing
- Give the canopy a wipe after service
Where the canopy is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Where only the canopy is done, the report says so clearly.
Wipe the canopy surfaces at the end of each day. It does not reach the plenum, but it stops the outside building up.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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, 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’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
What canopy cleaning looks like in Setley
Food Standards Agency data counts about 18 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Setley. Where they cook under a hood, the plenum behind the filters is where grease hides. It’s New Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Setley. 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. Fire safety in Setley falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.
For kitchens close to Brockenhurst station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight. School kitchens, at schools like Brockenhurst Church of England Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Setley questions
Will you come out to Setley?
Yes. Setley is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Setley?
Setley is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
How much does canopy cleaning cost in Setley?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We normally quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Leave it or put it right?
A blocked plenum and clogged filters cut the airflow at the canopy. Smoke and heat hang around the cooking line, and the fan works harder for less. A clean canopy and plenum let the extract do its job. If the system at a site near Setley fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
