We check that filters sit snugly in the housing at each visit, because gaps let grease through.
The plenum
A greasy plenum is a sign filters have been left too long or that the next TR19 clean is due.
About our grease filter exchange in Battramsley
A clean set of filters is a simple, regular dose of prevention. It keeps airflow up and grease down between full cleans and takes a messy task off your team. The full TR19 clean then gives the system its clean bill of health. The work covers restaurants and pubs, school and hospital kitchens and baffle filters, and common reasons people get in touch are grease collecting in the filter channels and a canopy that drips grease.
In a small place like Battramsley, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep every filter in place during service
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Clear anything stored on or near the canopy
- Never cook with the extract switched off
Your team carries on as normal, without the filter washing. Just keep the canopy clear for the next visit and let us know of any changes to opening hours.
Clean filters plus regular full cleans keep the system in good health. Setting both up on a schedule means neither slips.
Why it’s worth doing now in Battramsley
Filters full of grease are fuel sitting right above the cooking. A flare-up on the range can reach them and grease in the duct can carry a fire further. Clean filters mean less fuel in the canopy. It’s simpler to plan the work at Battramsley now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Grease filter exchange in Battramsley: the local picture
The coast is only about 3 miles from Battramsley. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 4 pubs and bars in Battramsley and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Battramsley is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Battramsley is Lymington New Forest Hospital, about 1.5 miles south-east. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St John or anywhere around Battramsley, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Common problems we fix in Battramsley
What a kitchen cooks affects how fast filters clog. Frying, grilling and chargrilling produce far more grease than steaming or baking so no single schedule suits every kitchen.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Poor airflow through the filters
- Staff short of time to wash filters
Bursars and site managers at schools such as William Gilpin Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Battramsley: your questions answered
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Battramsley in the summer holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 3 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Battramsley. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will fit the work in.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Battramsley?
That’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Does a filter exchange disrupt service?
A filter change is quick and can be timed around service. The canopy shouldn’t be used without filters so the swap is done promptly.
Do you deal with bent or broken filters?
Damaged filters don’t seat properly and let grease through. We flag any we find and explain what’s needed.
Is Battramsley in your area?
Yes. We cover Battramsley and across Hampshire, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with pictures, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. File it with your fire safety records.
Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?
No. Some grease passes the filters as vapour and settles in the ducts and the whole system still needs its TR19 clean.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
