Ductwork cleaning in Phoenix Green, Hampshire
Ductwork cleaning for Phoenix Green, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
- Sections of duct with no access panels
- Thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Ductwork cleaning in Phoenix Green
Each extract duct we take on in Phoenix Green goes through the full routine: readings at set points, heavy grease scraped out by hand, then degreasing to suit the deposit. Post-clean readings and pictures complete the record. Typical jobs include gaps where access panels were never fitted and high readings at a recent grease test, across vertical risers, access panels and horizontal duct runs.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Phoenix Green and across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
What we do, step by step
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Phoenix Green, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
- Set points along the runs are tested for grease.
- Through the access panels, thick grease is removed by hand first.
- Next the ducts and risers are degreased, using whatever suits the deposit.
- Post-clean readings and photos go into the report, with any unreachable section listed.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Getting a quote

Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Do not switch the extract off early
- Diarise the next duct clean
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Consider fitting panels where the report shows gaps
The report gives a recommended next clean date, worked out from the grease we found and how long you cook each day, in line with BESA guidance.
Extra access panels mean more of the duct gets cleaned each time. Grease you can reach is grease that gets removed.

FAQs for Phoenix Green

Yes. Phoenix Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Phoenix Green?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Phoenix Green. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
How do you know if the ductwork needs cleaning?
A grease thickness test gives the answer. Readings are taken by Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). A mean above 200 microns, or 500 microns at any point, means it’s due.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
