When something else is needed
Grease filter exchange can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- A fan that is failing or too weak for the system
- Grease deep in the extract system
- An extract that was undersized from the start

Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Brunswick
Good filters only work when they fit properly. Gaps in the filter bank are a direct route into the plenum, so we check every one at each visit. We point out any that need replacing. We are often asked to deal with grease dripping from the canopy and a canopy running with filters missing, on island canopies, restaurants and pubs and baffle filters.
In a smaller place like Brunswick, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What the work involves, part by part
Canopy filter housings
We check that filters sit snugly in the housing at each visit, because gaps let grease through.
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
The more a kitchen cooks, the more grease the filters see. Regular changes help protect the ductwork.
What we do, step by step
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Brunswick when you book.
- 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.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Advice
When to call us in Brunswick
Filters get bent and damaged with handling. A bent filter doesn’t seat properly and grease passes round them.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Grease filters clogged with grease
- Filter washing that keeps being missed
- Gaps where filters have been removed
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Montefiore Hospital about 0.5 miles north, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
What your quote should include
- Whether VAT is included
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
FAQs for Brunswick
Can you get to a site in Brunswick?
Yes, Brunswick is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Does being near the coast affect grease filter exchange in Brunswick?
It can. Being within about 1 mile of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Brunswick than inland. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.
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 where they can be found quickly.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.
Do you handle baffle and mesh filters?
We work with both baffle and mesh filters. The first step is recording what you have and plan the exchange around them.
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.
Kitchen extracts in Brunswick
Sea air reaches Brunswick, which sits within about 1 mile of the coast. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. Food Standards Agency records list about 749 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 135 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Brunswick, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on its filters to catch grease before it reaches the duct. Environmental health officers from Brighton and Hove council inspect food businesses in Brunswick. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as St Mary Magdalen Catholic Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Stephen's Church, or anywhere in Brunswick, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
