Bagnum grease filter exchange
Our technicians work in Bagnum on a scheduled grease filter exchange, swapping dirty canopy filters for clean ones. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports as standard.
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
- Grease filters clogged with grease
- Damaged filters letting grease past
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
- Don’t let the full clean slip because filters are changed
- Watch for grease drips between visits
Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Just keep the canopy clear for the next visit and tell us if service times change.
Clean filters plus regular full cleans keep the system in good health. Setting both up on a schedule keeps everything on track.
About our grease filter exchange in Bagnum
Baffle filters and mesh filters both fill with grease. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the extract struggles. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. If you have a greasy plenum behind the filters and poor airflow through the filters, we can put it right, from wall canopies, island canopies and mesh filters onwards.
In a small place like Bagnum, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. The timing of a visit to Bagnum is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Related advice
What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Common questions in Bagnum
Will you come out to Bagnum?
Yes, Bagnum is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which fire authority looks after Bagnum?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Bagnum. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
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.
Are you accredited?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
What happens if it’s left?
Grease dripping from the canopy is a sign the filters can’t hold any more. Left, it ends up on equipment, food areas and staff, which an EHO may well notice. Planning a trip to Bagnum ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

What a clean won’t put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change won’t reach
- Grease behind the filters that a swap can’t remove
- Smell complaints that need odour control equipment
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we price grease filter exchange
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- The scale of the work
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The times the site is available

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Grease filter exchange around Bagnum
Food hygiene inspections in Bagnum are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Bagnum is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Ringwood School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Bagnum (Avon Tyrrell House is about 1.7 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Leonard's Hospital (about 4.4 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
