How we handle ductwork cleaning in Mislingford

Not sure when the ductwork was last cleaned? Tell us about the system when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will give you a fixed quote for ductwork cleaning, usually within one working day. The work covers horizontal duct runs, multi-storey ducts and attenuators, and people most often call us about grease pooling at the foot of the riser and a rancid smell from the extract duct.

Somewhere as small as Mislingford, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Do you need ductwork cleaning in Mislingford?

Wherever the kitchen is, in Mislingford or elsewhere, the duct fills in the same way: daily cooking hours, the menu and the state of the filters. BESA guidance sets minimum intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months depending on daily use.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A grease test showing the duct is overdue
  • Thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct
  • Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
  • Duct runs with no cleaning record

Bursars and site managers at schools such as Swanmore College of Technology tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

How the job changes from site to site

Attenuators and discharge

Some systems have attenuators to reduce noise, but they can hold grease in their linings. We clean what can be reached and note anything that cannot.

Horizontal duct runs

Horizontal runs carry the extract along ceilings and through voids. Grease drops out of the slowing air along them, and we clean them section by section through access panels.

Questions from Mislingford

Can you get to a site in Mislingford?

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Mislingford included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

Can a school canteen extract in Mislingford be done out of term time?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Mislingford, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.

Is a quote from photos possible?

Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we usually come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.

What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?

You get a photo report with before and after pictures, plus a TR19 certificate when the whole system is cleaned. File them with the fire risk assessment.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few pictures and any previous report.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.

How long will the duct clean take?

It takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.

Kitchen extracts in Mislingford

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 8 pubs and bars across Mislingford and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Mislingford. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In Mislingford, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Winchester City 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.

Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Mislingford is Knowle Hospital, about 3.6 miles south-west.

For landlords and multi-site operators

For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

Between visits

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Store the certificate with the fire risk assessment
  • Keep to the interval on the report
  • Consider fitting panels where the report shows gaps
  • Have the grease measured if cooking hours go up

When the duct is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It shows when and where the clean was done and by whom.

Run the extract the whole time the kitchen is cooking. When the air stops, grease settles in the duct, so switching off early adds to the build-up.

Why it’s worth doing now in Mislingford

A partly blocked duct slows the airflow. The fan works harder, the kitchen gets hotter and smoke lingers at the canopy and grease can drip from duct joints. It’s simpler to plan the work at Mislingford now than to arrange it in a hurry later.

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.

What happens on the day

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. The timing of a visit to Mislingford is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. We trace the duct and find every way in.
  2. Grease thickness is measured at set points.
  3. Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
  4. Heavy deposits come out by hand, then each section is degreased.
  5. We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
