How grease filter exchange works in Slough
Whether your canopy has baffle or mesh filters, they load up with grease. Once they’re clogged, airflow drops and the extract struggles. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. The work covers school and hospital kitchens, wall canopies and baffle filters, and the jobs we see most are weak extraction at the canopy and filters that leave gaps in the canopy.
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows.
- We start by noting how many filters you have and what type they are.
- A change schedule is agreed to match the kitchen’s cooking hours.
- Each visit starts with the used filters being removed.
- Clean, dry filters are fitted in their place, with no gaps left between them.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.

Grease filter exchange around Slough
Our grease filter exchange work across Slough takes in places such as Cippenham, Chalvey and Britwell and the villages in between. We cover every place we list for Slough, 31 in all, and kitchens are cleaned around their opening hours, overnight and at weekends included.
From central London kitchens to coastal hotels and country pubs, London and the South East have every kind of site. The same TR19® standard applies to all of them, in Slough and beyond.
Slough: If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Upton Hospital about 0.9 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Herschel Grammar School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Grease deep in the extract system
- A noisy or failed extract fan
- A canopy that doesn’t capture the vapour properly
Why deal with it now?
A filter exchange is a few minutes; a choked extract affects a whole service. Few maintenance jobs are as easy and few are as easy to forget.

Part by part
Mesh filters
Mesh traps grease between its layers, so a quick rinse rarely gets it clean.
Canopy filter housings
We check that filters sit snugly in the housing at each visit, because gaps let grease through.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Slough. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
What staff can safely do
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
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.
FAQs for Slough
Which grease filters does the service cover?
Baffle and mesh filters are both covered. We check what’s in your canopies first and set up the service around them.
What happens to the dirty filters?
They leave with us. That is the point of an exchange: you always have a clean set fitted, with no washing for your team.
How often should grease filters be changed?
The right interval depends on the kitchen. If filters clog early, the interval needs shortening, and we can change it.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Does a filter exchange disrupt service?
Not for long, and we can time it to avoid service. Cooking shouldn’t happen with the filters out so the swap is done promptly.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
