How we handle grease filter exchange in Corhampton
Across Corhampton, our filter exchange suits restaurants, pubs, cafés, schools, care homes and other kitchens, whether there’s one canopy or many. Visits can be timed around your service, so cooking is not interrupted. If you’re dealing with grease left in baffles after washing and filters so greasy the air can barely pass, we can help, from wall canopies, school and hospital kitchens and restaurants and pubs onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
We have been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Your questions about grease filter exchange in Corhampton
Which fire service covers Corhampton?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Corhampton. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Which council inspects kitchens in Corhampton?
In Corhampton, it’s Winchester City council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Where do the greasy filters go?
We do. The dirty filters are taken away for cleaning and the clean set stays in the canopy.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Can damaged filters stay in the canopy?
A badly damaged filter should be replaced. We will show you which ones on the visit.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a written, dated record with photos of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.

Grease filter exchange in Corhampton: the local picture
The fire and rescue service for Corhampton is 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. In Corhampton, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Winchester City council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Hinton Ampner House is about 4.4 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Corhampton Church or elsewhere in Corhampton, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Corhampton is about 7 miles north-west of Horndean, in Hampshire.

Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
- Watch for grease drips between visits
If the plenum behind the filters looks greasy, we say so. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due, and we can arrange it.
Dripping filters are a clear sign they’re full. A clean set straight away cuts the grease in the canopy, and it’s worth checking the plenum too.
When to call us in Corhampton
Long cooking hours in Corhampton or anywhere else mean more grease on the filters. A kitchen that cooks all day loads its filters quickly, so it needs more frequent changes.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Drips falling from the filters onto equipment
- Filter washing that keeps being missed
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
- Filters that come out of the sink still dirty
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Meonstoke Church of England Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Corhampton run smoothly.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- An exchange schedule is agreed to suit your cooking.
- On each visit, we remove the greasy filters.
- A clean set is fitted and checked for gaps.
- We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.
Advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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 is where we come in.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Different parts, different methods
The plenum
With good filters, less grease ends up in the plenum, but it still needs cleaning as part of TR19.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Even kitchens with fixed meal times build up grease, though often more slowly.
