Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Burchett's Green
Think of filter exchange as routine care for the extract. It keeps airflow up and grease down between full cleans and takes a messy task off your team. Full TR19 cleaning still comes at the right interval, with a certificate. The work covers restaurants and pubs, wall canopies and mesh filters, and the jobs we see most are weak extraction at the canopy and grease left in baffles after washing.
Somewhere as small as Burchett's Green, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Wipe the outside of the canopy as part of daily cleaning
- Clear anything stored on or near the canopy
- Always run the extract while cooking
- Report a dripping canopy early
Fresh filters improve airflow at the canopy straight away. Always run the extract during cooking so the filters do their job.
Filter exchange and TR19 cleaning work best together. A maintenance plan that covers both keeps everything on track.
What we are called out for in Burchett's Green
Sometimes a filter is taken out and never put back. A missing filter leaves an open route into the system where it settles out of sight.
What we are most often called out for:
- Grease left in baffles after washing
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- A canopy that drips grease
- Poor airflow through the filters
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Harleyford Manor is about 2.1 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

What the work involves, part by part
Canopy filter housings
Filters sit in a housing or channel in the canopy. If it’s bent or greasy, filters will not seat properly.
Mesh filters
Layers of mesh catch grease droplets. In a busy kitchen, mesh soon blocks and need frequent attention.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. Somewhere as small as Burchett's Green, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- First, we record the size, type and number of filters in each canopy.
- Together we set how often the filters should be changed.
- On each visit, the dirty filters come out of the canopy.
- We fit clean filters and check they sit snugly in the housing.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Move anything stored near the system
