How we handle grease filter exchange in Clanfield
A filter that does not sit right lets grease straight past. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps and every filter is checked when we swap them. Damaged filters are flagged so they can be replaced. If you have smoke and heat lingering under the hood and gaps where filters have been removed, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Clanfield, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Kitchen extracts in Clanfield
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 3 bars, pubs and nightclubs in and around Clanfield, up to about a mile and a half out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. It’s East Hampshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Clanfield. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Clanfield sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St James, or anywhere in Clanfield, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Petersfield Community Hospital about 5.1 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

What else we do in Clanfield
Do you need grease filter exchange in Clanfield?
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.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Staff short of time to wash filters
- Grease left in baffles after washing
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- Grease filters clogged with grease
For schools such as Clanfield Junior School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What grease filter exchange cannot fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what grease filter exchange won’t do:
- Extraction problems caused by the fan rather than the filters
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- Smell complaints that need odour control equipment
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on in Clanfield
- Baffle filters
- Restaurants and pubs
- Island canopies
- Mesh filters
- Wall canopies
- School and hospital kitchens
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits
- Keep every filter in place during service
There’s no waiting: the canopy is ready as soon as the clean set is fitted. We take the greasy filters with us for cleaning.
If filters are already dripping, they’re overdue. Changing them now reduces the fuel above the cooking, and it’s worth checking the plenum too.
Why it’s worth doing now in Clanfield
Dripping canopies and greasy smells often start with the filters. Left, it ends up on equipment, food areas and staff and that is the kind of thing inspectors look for. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, 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. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Clanfield.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- We exchange the dirty filters for a clean set.
- We check the filters are seated and the canopy is ready to use.
- We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

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 pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Your questions about grease filter exchange in Clanfield
Do you work overnight in Clanfield?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which fire service covers Clanfield?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Clanfield. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can you give a price for filter changes?
We price it on the number of filters and the visit frequency. Tell us what you have and we’ll come back with a fixed quote quickly.
Do you deal with bent or broken filters?
A bent filter leaves a gap for grease. We flag any we find so they can be replaced.
Do you work in Clanfield?
Yes. Our technicians work in Clanfield, within the South East and London area we cover.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The recommended date is 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, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?
No, the two work together. TR19® cleaning covers the canopy, plenum, ductwork and fan and comes with a certificate and photo report.
Do you clean filters as well as exchanging them?
We offer filter cleaning as well as exchange. We will explain the options when we quote.
What affects the quote in Clanfield
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The size of the system
- How easy every part is to reach
- The times the site is available
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- A few general shots of the system
- The site address and the type of premises

What the work involves, part by part
School, care home and staff kitchens
A longer exchange interval may suit lighter cooking. We agree the schedule to match.
Baffle filters
Baffle filters are robust and widely used in commercial canopies. They still need regular cleaning as the collected grease builds up between the blades.
