How we handle grease filter exchange in Bierley
Cleaning filters by hand takes staff time and is easy to put off. An exchange service means clean filters arrive and greasy ones leave and the canopy is refilled right away. Common call-outs are for weak extraction at the canopy and gaps where filters have been removed, on restaurants and pubs, baffle filters and mesh filters.
Somewhere as small as Bierley, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What a clean will not put right
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- A noisy or failed extract fan
- Smell complaints that need odour control equipment
- A canopy too small for the cooking beneath it

Part by part
Mesh filters
Older or smaller canopies often use mesh filters. They can be on the same exchange schedule as baffle filters.
The plenum
With good filters, less grease ends up in the plenum, but it still needs cleaning as part of TR19.
Grease filter exchange around Bierley
The coast is only about 2 miles from Bierley. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. Kitchens in Bierley get their food hygiene inspections from Isle of Wight council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in Bierley falls to 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.
Where a hall near Church of St. Mary and St. Radegund, or anywhere in Bierley, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Arthur Webster Memorial Hospital for Children (about 5 miles north-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Your questions about grease filter exchange in Bierley
Do you work in villages like Bierley?
Yes, Bierley is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which fire service covers Bierley?
Fire safety enforcement in Bierley is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
How long does grease filter exchange take?
The work itself takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. Bigger or more complicated systems take longer, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that can’t wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Is there a cleaning option for the filters we have?
Yes, that’s an option. The first step is looking at the filters you have because bent or damaged ones may need replacing.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
Pricing depends on the kitchen, so we need to know the filters and interval first. You get a fixed price before the first visit.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
The canopy looks cleaner and the air moves better right away. Keep the extract running while you cook so the filters do their job.
If filters are already dripping, they’re overdue. A clean set right away cuts the grease in the canopy and the plenum may need a clean as well.
What happens on the day
Your staff do not need to do much 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. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Bierley can be planned properly.
- First, we record the size, type and number of filters in each canopy.
- We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
- Each visit starts with the used filters being removed.
- Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Ask for a quote
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Do you need grease filter exchange in Bierley?
Long cooking hours in Bierley or anywhere else mean more grease on the filters. A kitchen that cooks all day loads its filters quickly, so it needs more frequent changes.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Bent or damaged filters that do not sit properly
- A greasy plenum behind the filters
- Filters left unwashed on busy weeks
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Bierley (Sheat Manor is about 4.1 miles north), fitting access panels needs care.

Why deal with it now?
Grease-loaded filters are a fire risk in their own right. 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. With notice, the visit to Bierley can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
