Managing agents and facilities teams in Wootton
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Wootton and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
About our canopy cleaning in Wootton
The canopy is where the extract system breathes in. A dirty canopy passes more grease further into the system. Our diagnosis starts there, and the cure is a thorough clean of the hood, the plenum and the filter housing. Typical jobs include an EHO comment about the canopy and condensation running down the canopy, across wall canopies, grease gutters and canopy light fittings.
Work in a small place like Wootton starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What a clean won’t put right
Not every problem is solved by canopy cleaning, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t put right:
- Electrical faults in the canopy
- Weak extraction caused by a failing fan motor
- A hood that doesn’t cover the cooking line
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think.
What the work covers
- Baffle filters
- Plenum chambers
- Grease gutters
- Wall canopies
- Canopy light fittings
- Island canopies
Different parts, different methods
Pub and hotel kitchens
Staff in pub and hotel kitchens work under the canopy all day, so a dripping hood quickly becomes everyone’s problem. A thorough clean puts that right.
School and staff canteen kitchens
School and canteen kitchens often cook to set hours, so the canopy can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed. Holidays and weekends work well.
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.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
How it works
Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a few hours for most canopies. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Wootton.
- We start by checking the canopy and what’s behind its filters.
- We protect everything below once it has cooled.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- You get pictures of the result and a recommended date for the next clean.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Questions from Wootton
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Wootton?
Kitchens in Wootton are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Which fire service covers Wootton?
That’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Do you work in Wootton?
Yes. We cover Wootton and the rest of Hampshire, within our South East and London area. To book, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
What accreditations do you have?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Is the inside of the hood cleaned?
Inside and out, including the seams, troughs and gutters. With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned as well.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Flag any change in how the canopy behaves
- Refit filters the right way round and fully seated
- Keep grease cups and drawers emptied
- Never run the range with a filter out
We point out anything we noticed while the canopy was apart: damaged filters, gaps around the housing or troughs that need emptying more often. We keep it to what matters.
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.
