Grease filter exchange across Broadland Row

What grease filter exchange looks like in Broadland Row

About 50 miles out from central London, Broadland Row is part of the South East area we work across. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Fire safety in Broadland Row falls to East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

A hospital like Conquest Hospital, about 4.8 miles south-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Broadland Row, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

About our grease filter exchange in Broadland Row

Filter exchange sits between full TR19® cleans. Fresh filters help limit what gets into the ductwork though vapour still carries some grease past them. That is why the whole system still needs cleaning to TR19 at the right interval. If you’re dealing with filters that leave gaps in the canopy and a greasy plenum behind the filters, we can put it right.

In a village or hamlet like Broadland Row, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Do you need grease filter exchange in Broadland Row?

Sometimes a filter is taken out and never put back. Every gap in the filter bank lets grease straight into the plenum where it settles out of sight.

Keep an eye out for these warning signs:

  • Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
  • Smoke and heat lingering under the hood
  • Grease filters clogged with grease
  • Bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly

Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Great Dixter is about 4 miles north-west), access may need planning.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What records you’ll receive afterwards
  • If they look at the system before pricing
  • Whether the quote shows VAT
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Keeping the system healthy

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Make sure no filter is left out
  • Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
  • Don’t refit a filter that is bent
  • Report a dripping canopy early

Once the clean filters are in, the kitchen can cook right away. The dirty set leaves with us for cleaning.

Saturated filters let more grease through. A regular cycle keeps the rest of the system cleaner between full cleans.

Leave it or put it right?

For any kitchen in Broadland Row, filters can’t stand in for a full TR19 clean. But clean filters do help the system between cleans and the canopy and plenum stay cleaner. It’s simpler to plan the work at Broadland Row now than to arrange it in a hurry later.

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

Why us?

  • Fixed quotes, usually within one working day
  • Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
  • Survey first, then a fixed quote
  • One number for every site across the South East and London

What happens on the day

There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes less than an hour in most kitchens. Visits to a village like Broadland Row are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  1. First, we record the size, type and number of filters in each canopy.
  2. A change schedule is agreed to match the kitchen’s cooking hours.
  3. On each visit, the dirty filters come out of the canopy.
  4. Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
  5. Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Find the previous report, if there is one

Common questions in Broadland Row

Which fire service covers Broadland Row?

Fire safety enforcement in Broadland Row is handled by East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. 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.

Can the work in Broadland Row be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Broadland Row can fit around your hours. When you call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.

Will you tell us when the next visit is due?

Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.

What happens to the dirty filters?

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

What types of filter do you exchange?

The common types of grease filter: baffle and mesh. Tell us what you have when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will confirm it on site.

Can you clean our existing filters instead?

We can. Some kitchens prefer their own filters cleaned on a schedule while others want an exchange. Either way, the canopy is not left without filters during service.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Broadland Row

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

How the job changes from site to site

Canopy filter housings

Filters sit in a housing or channel in the canopy. A damaged housing leaves gaps.

School, care home and staff kitchens

For kitchens closed in the holidays, visits can be timed around term or rota, keeping the filters ready for the busy weeks.
