Grease filter exchange in Gundleton, done properly
Whether your canopy has baffle or mesh filters, they load up with grease. Once they’re clogged, airflow drops and the fan has to work harder. Regular exchange keeps the air moving. We are often asked to deal with staff short of time to wash filters and bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly, on school and hospital kitchens, island canopies and baffle filters.
Work in a small place like Gundleton starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Different parts, different methods
School, care home and staff kitchens
For kitchens closed in the holidays, visits can be timed around term or rota, keeping the filters ready for the busy weeks.
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
Kitchens that fry and grill all day load their filters fast. Their exchange schedule is normally the tightest.

When to call us in Gundleton
Filters get bent and damaged with handling. A bent filter does not seat properly and grease passes round them.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- A greasy plenum behind the filters
- Bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly
- Gaps where filters have been removed
- Filters that come out of the sink still dirty
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Gundleton, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
What to look for in a quote
- What paperwork you get at the end
- When the next visit should be, and why
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- Whether a survey comes first
What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Gundleton questions
Do you work at weekends in Gundleton?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Gundleton needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Gundleton?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Gundleton. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can you give a price for filter changes?
Filters, canopies and how often you need visits all affect the price. Send us details or pictures and we’ll quote quickly.
Do you take the used filters away?
They leave with us. That is how an exchange works: clean filters in, dirty ones out and nothing greasy left on site.
Why deal with it now?
Dripping canopies and greasy smells often start with the filters. Drips land on surfaces and equipment below and that’s the kind of thing inspectors look for. A fault that closes a site in a village like Gundleton affects everyone who depends on it.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

The process
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes well under an hour for most canopies. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Gundleton, let us know and we will plan around it.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- We check the filters are seated and the canopy is ready to use.
- We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.
How to prepare
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Advice
Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day and let us know of any changes to opening hours.
Damaged filters leave gaps in the defence. Sorting them now keeps grease where it can be caught.
