- Filter washing that keeps being missed
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- A canopy running with filters missing
Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Tell us if a filter is bent or damaged
- Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
Keep an eye out for filters that have been taken out. A missing filter leaves a gap for grease, so let us know if one goes missing or gets damaged.
Saturated filters let more grease through. Getting onto a regular exchange now keeps grease out of the plenum and ductwork until the next TR19 clean.
Grease filter exchange in Bognor Regis, done properly
A filter that does not sit right lets grease straight past. Gaps in the filter bank are a direct route into the plenum, so we check every one at each visit. Damaged filters are flagged so they can be replaced. If you have gaps where filters have been removed and grease dripping from the canopy, we can help.
Town-centre kitchens in a place like Bognor Regis often sit below flats or offices, with risers that run up the back of the building to roof level. A riser needs proper access to be cleaned top to bottom, and any section we cannot reach is recorded on the report.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we do, step by step
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes well under an hour for most canopies. Managed buildings in a place the size of Bognor Regis often have sign-in, permits-to-work and key holders, and the visit is planned around them.
- We look at the canopies and the condition of the filters.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- We check the filters are seated and the canopy is ready to use.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What we’re called out for in Bognor Regis
Filters get bent and damaged with handling. A bent filter does not seat properly, leaving gaps for grease to slip through.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
- Staff short of time to wash filters
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
- Gaps where filters have been removed
A hospital like Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital, about 0.5 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Grease, kitchens and Bognor Regis
At about 1 mile from the coast, Bognor Regis is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 93 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 42 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Bognor Regis, up to about a mile and a half out. Swapping filters on a schedule keeps kitchens like these drawing air properly. The fire and rescue service for Bognor Regis is West Sussex 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.
A kitchen near Bognor Regis station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Where a hall near Church of St Mary Magdalene, or anywhere in Bognor Regis, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bognor Regis
Leaving filters too long pushes more grease into the plenum and ducts. The ductwork then loads up faster and grease readings can rise between cleans. Larger sites in Bognor Regis are easier to manage on a planned schedule.
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.

Questions from Bognor Regis
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Bognor Regis out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. With about 26 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Bognor Regis, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Who inspects food businesses in Bognor Regis?
That’s Arun council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Bognor Regis. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
What types of filter do you exchange?
The common types of grease filter: baffle and mesh. Mention how many canopies you have when you get in touch, or we’ll check on the first visit.
Is there a cleaning option for the filters we have?
Yes, filters can be cleaned on a schedule as well as exchanged. We’ll explain the options when we quote.
How long does the visit take?
The work itself takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. Larger systems naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?
No. Some grease passes the filters as vapour and settles in the ducts, so the full system still needs cleaning to TR19.
Do you deal with bent or broken filters?
Damaged filters do not seat properly and let grease through. We flag any we find so they can be replaced.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.

Baffle filters
Baffle filters use overlapping metal blades that force the air to change direction. Grease is thrown out of the airstream and collects on the baffles.
School, care home and staff kitchens
For kitchens closed in the holidays, visits can be timed around term or rota so the filters are clean when cooking picks up.
