Baughurst grease filter exchange
Looking for grease filter exchange in Baughurst? We diagnose first, fix the price and book the work around your hours, then sign off with a report and pictures.
- Grease collecting in the filter channels
- Grease filters clogged with grease
- Drips falling from the filters onto equipment
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
If the plenum behind the filters looks greasy, we say so. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due, and we can arrange it.
Saturated filters let more grease through. A regular cycle keeps the rest of the system cleaner between full cleans.
About our grease filter exchange in Baughurst
Whether your canopy has baffle or mesh filters, they load up with grease. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the fan has to work harder. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. The work covers baffle filters, school and hospital kitchens and island canopies, and people most often call us about filters that come out of the sink still dirty and a greasy plenum behind the filters.
In a small place like Baughurst, 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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

It varies with the type and amount of cooking. If filters are dripping or clogging before the next change, it’s too long and we will adjust it.

Baughurst kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 6 pubs and bars as registered food businesses in Baughurst 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. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Baughurst. 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. Environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council inspect food businesses in Baughurst. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Park Prewett Hospital about 5.4 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Saint Mary's Church or elsewhere in Baughurst, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Baughurst (The Vyne is about 4.6 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care.

How we price grease filter exchange
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The number of sites or systems
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The condition of the system
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your last certificate, test record or report
For grease filter exchange in Baughurst, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, and send photos or your last report if you can. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what grease filter exchange will not do:
- Grease deep in the extract system
- A canopy too small for the cooking beneath it
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.
Where we work
- Mesh filters
- Restaurants and pubs
- School and hospital kitchens
- Island canopies
- Wall canopies
- Baffle filters
What the work involves, part by part
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
Heavy cooking means more grease reaching every part of the system. Changing them on time protects the ducts behind.
The plenum
Behind the filters sits the plenum, where air gathers before the duct. It collects whatever grease the filters miss.
How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Baughurst can be planned properly.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- We set the interval with you.
- The dirty set is lifted out.
- Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
- The dirty filters leave with us and the next visit is booked.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
