Grease filter exchange in Frogham
A clean set of filters is a simple, regular dose of prevention. It keeps airflow up and grease down between full cleans, and it saves your staff a greasy job. The full TR19 clean then gives the system its clean bill of health. The work covers mesh filters, school and hospital kitchens and wall canopies, and common reasons people get in touch are filters so greasy the air can barely pass and bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly.
For a kitchen in or near Frogham, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Kitchen extracts in Frogham
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in and around Frogham, 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. Frogham is covered by Kent Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Dover council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Frogham. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Nonington Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Frogham, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Frogham, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Part by part
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
In a busy kitchen, filter washing is easy to skip. An exchange service takes it off the rota.
Baffle filters
Baffle filters use overlapping metal blades that force the air to change direction. Grease is thrown out of the airstream and collects on the baffles.

Signs you need grease filter exchange in Frogham
Washing filters by hand does not always get them clean. Grease hides in the folds of a baffle or the layers of a mesh and a sink wash rarely reaches it.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Blocked baffle filters
- Filters that come out of the sink still dirty
- A canopy that drips grease
- A canopy running with filters missing
A hospital like Buckland Hospital, about 6 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
Questions to ask before booking
- Proof of insurance
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- What paperwork you get at the end
How it works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Visits to a village like Frogham are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- An exchange schedule is agreed to suit your cooking.
- The dirty set is lifted out.
- A clean set is fitted and checked for gaps.
- The dirty filters leave with us and the next visit is booked.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Advice
Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Book full TR19 cleans alongside filter changes
- Report a dripping canopy early
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Just keep the canopy clear for the next visit and let us know of any changes to opening hours.
Bent or missing filters let grease straight past. Replacing them early protects the plenum and ductwork.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
