What grease filter exchange can’t fix

How we handle grease filter exchange in Bramley Green
Cleaning filters by hand takes staff time and is easy to put off. With a filter exchange, we bring a clean set and take the dirty one away, so the canopy is never left without filters. If you have staff short of time to wash filters and weak extraction at the canopy, we can help, from wall canopies, mesh filters and island canopies onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Bramley Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Don’t refit a filter that is bent
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
Between visits, check that every filter is still in place. A missing filter leaves a gap for grease, so let us know if one goes missing or gets damaged.
If filters are already dripping, they’re overdue. A clean set straight away cuts the grease in the canopy and the plenum may need a clean as well.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. 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.
Do you need grease filter exchange in Bramley Green?
Kitchens in Bramley Green, as everywhere, find filter washing slips down the list on busy weeks. A missed wash or two is all it takes for a filter bank to clog.
What we are most often called out for:
- Drips falling from the filters onto equipment
- Filters that leave gaps in the canopy
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Bramley Green (The Vyne is about 2.1 miles south-west), fitting access panels needs care.

What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. For a village or hamlet like Bramley Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We start by noting how many filters you have and what type they are.
- A change schedule is agreed to match the kitchen’s cooking hours.
- At every visit, the greasy filters are lifted out.
- Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
- If a filter is damaged or the plenum needs attention, we tell you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
Advice
Grease filter exchange in Bramley Green: the local picture
Look up Bramley Green on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens across Bramley Green and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Clogged filters slow the airflow, and busy kitchens like these clog them fast. Bramley Green is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Food hygiene inspections in Bramley Green are the job of Basingstoke and Deane council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Bramley Green is Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, about 4.1 miles south-west.

What the work involves, part by part
Canopy filter housings
We check that filters sit snugly in the housing at each visit since a gap is a route for grease.
The plenum
A greasy plenum is a sign filters have been left too long, or that a full clean is due.
Questions from Bramley Green
Is Bramley Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Bramley Green is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which fire service covers Bramley Green?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Bramley Green. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
What should go in our maintenance log?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them together and easy to find.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?
No. Filters don’t catch everything, so grease still reaches the ductwork and the whole system still needs its TR19 clean.
How long will you be on site?
It depends on the size of the system, but for a typical site it takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. We will confirm it with the quote.
