How we handle grease filter exchange in Hampers Green
Good filters only work when they fit properly. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps and every filter is checked when we swap them. We point out any that need replacing. If you’re dealing with a canopy that drips grease and staff short of time to wash filters, we can put it right, from island canopies, wall canopies and school and hospital kitchens onwards.
In a small place like Hampers Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change won’t reach
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- An extract that was undersized from the start
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Where we work
- School and hospital kitchens
- Baffle filters
- Wall canopies
- Mesh filters
- Island canopies
- Restaurants and pubs
Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Don’t refit a filter that is bent
Between visits, check that every filter is still in place. A missing filter leaves a gap for grease, so let us know if one goes missing or gets damaged.
A kitchen that is getting busier needs its filters changed more often. Adjusting the schedule now prevents a build-up in the ducts.
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Common questions in Hampers Green
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Hampers Green?
In Hampers Green, it’s Chichester council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Which fire authority looks after Hampers Green?
West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Hampers Green. 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 accreditations do you hold?

How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

Yes, on every job. It’s a dated, written report with photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. Keep it in your maintenance log.
How long will you be on site?
Your quote will say how long we expect to be there. In most cases, the work takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Kitchen extracts in Hampers Green
The FSA’s data shows about 8 pubs, bars and clubs registered within about 1.5 miles of central Hampers Green. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. In Hampers Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Chichester council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in Hampers Green falls to West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Hampers Green and across West Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Signs you need grease filter exchange in Hampers Green
Hand-washed filters often come back still greasy. Grease hides in the folds of a baffle or the layers of a mesh, and a quick rinse leaves it there.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Poor airflow through the filters
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Midhurst Community Hospital (about 5.5 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
