Bosham Hoe questions
Does coastal air change anything about grease filter exchange in Bosham Hoe?
It can. Salt air reaches Bosham Hoe, which is within about 1 mile of the coast, and it speeds up rust. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Which fire service covers Bosham Hoe?
That is West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them together and easy to find.
Can you give a price for filter changes?
Pricing depends on the kitchen, so we need to know the filters and interval first. You get a fixed price before the service starts.
What’s the right interval for changing filters?
There’s no single answer. We look at your cooking and set an interval to match and can change if your kitchen gets busier.
How we handle grease filter exchange in Bosham Hoe
Cleaning filters by hand takes staff time and is easy to put off. An exchange service means clean filters arrive and greasy ones leave, so the canopy is never left without filters. If you are dealing with weak extraction at the canopy and filters so greasy the air can barely pass, we can put it right.
In a small place like Bosham Hoe, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Kitchen extracts in Bosham Hoe
Sea air reaches Bosham Hoe, which sits within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. There are about 5 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Bosham Hoe, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each canopy among them has filters that load with grease and need swapping or cleaning. In Bosham Hoe, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Chichester council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; St Richard's Hospital is the nearest hospital to Bosham Hoe, about 3.8 miles north-east. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near The Parish Church of the Holy Trinity, or anywhere in Bosham Hoe, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Bosham Hoe
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
The process
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Bosham Hoe.
- We record the number, size and type of your filters.
- We set the interval with you.
- The dirty set is lifted out.
- Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
- We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Get a fixed quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Bosham Hoe
When filters block, extraction suffers. The kitchen gets hotter and smokier, and the fan works harder to pull air through. A regular exchange keeps the airflow where it should be. Somewhere as small as Bosham Hoe, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
