Kitchen extracts in Breamore

Food Standards Agency records include about 3 pubs and bars in Breamore and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Fire safety in Breamore 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. In Breamore, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.

Church and community hall kitchens, near St Boniface or anywhere around Breamore, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Historic houses near Breamore, such as Breamore House about 1 mile north-west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

How we handle grease filter exchange in Breamore

In Breamore, our filter exchange runs on a schedule set by how much the kitchen cooks. The heavier the cooking, the more often filters need changing while a lighter kitchen can go longer. We agree the interval with you at the start. If you have staff short of time to wash filters and weak extraction at the canopy, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Breamore, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, 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 ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
  • Let us know if your cooking hours increase
  • Don’t let the full clean slip because filters are changed
  • Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day

Your team carries on as normal, without the filter washing. Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day and let us know of any changes to opening hours.

Clean filters plus regular full cleans keep the system in good health. A maintenance plan that covers both keeps everything on track.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.

The process

Your staff don’t 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 the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Breamore can be planned properly.

  1. The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
  2. An exchange schedule is agreed to suit your cooking.
  3. On each visit, we remove the greasy filters.
  4. Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
  5. We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Get a fixed quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Advice

What we are called out for in Breamore

Cooking vapour carries grease into the canopy. The filters catch much of it so they gradually clog until the air can barely get through.

Look out for these warning signs:

  • Damaged filters letting grease past
  • Grease collecting in the filter channels
  • Weak extraction at the canopy
  • Grease filters clogged with grease

Bursars and site managers at schools such as Breamore Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What to look for in a quote

  • How they set the interval to the next visit
  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • Whether a survey comes first

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

What your team can do, and what needs us

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.

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.

What affects the cost of grease filter exchange

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • How big the system is
  • What state the system is in

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

What we need to know

When you contact us, these details help:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Any previous report or certificate

Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Questions from Breamore

Do you work overnight in Breamore?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Breamore keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Which environmental health team covers Breamore?

That is New Forest council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Breamore. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?

No. Filter exchange works between full cleans, not instead of them. A TR19® clean deals with the whole system and comes with a certificate and photo report.

What types of premises do you cover?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.

Which grease filters does the service cover?

Baffle and mesh filters are both covered. The first step is recording what you have and plan the exchange around them.

How far ahead should we book?

For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

Where do the greasy filters go?

We take them away to be cleaned, so your staff don’t have to wash them. A clean set is fitted in their place.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.

What the work involves, part by part

Baffle filters

When baffles fill with grease, less air gets through. Swapping them for a clean set restores it.

Canopy filter housings

The trough or channel under the filters fills with grease. We point it out if it needs cleaning.
