Grease filter exchange in Hooe Common, done properly
A filter that doesn’t sit right lets grease straight past. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps, so we check every one at each visit. We point out any that need replacing. The work covers island canopies, baffle filters and wall canopies, and people most often call us about filters that come out of the sink still dirty and drips falling from the filters onto equipment.
In a village or hamlet like Hooe Common, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
A written report with photos follows every 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.

What the work involves, part by part
Baffle filters
When baffles fill with grease, less air gets through. Swapping them for a clean set restores it.
Canopy filter housings
Every exchange includes a check of how the filters sit, because gaps let grease through.
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Book full TR19 cleans alongside filter changes
- Look out for drips from the canopy
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
Between visits, check that every filter is still in place. Gaps let grease into the plenum, so let us know if one goes missing or gets damaged.
Dripping filters are a clear sign they’re full. Changing them now reduces the fuel above the cooking and the plenum may need a clean as well.
Hooe Common questions
Do you work at weekends in Hooe Common?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Hooe Common can fit around your hours. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Hooe Common?
Fire safety enforcement in Hooe Common is handled by East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What’s the right interval for changing filters?
It varies with the type and amount of cooking. If filters are dripping or clogging before the next change, it’s too long, and we can change it.
Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?
No. Filter exchange works between full cleans, not instead of them. TR19® cleaning covers the canopy, plenum, ductwork and fan, with a certificate and photo report.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Can you clean our existing filters instead?
Yes, filters can be cleaned on a schedule as well as exchanged. We will explain the options when you get in touch.
What we do, step by step
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. The timing of a visit to Hooe Common is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- We set the interval with you.
- On each visit, we remove the greasy filters.
- Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
- We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hooe Common
Grease-loaded filters are a fire risk in their own right. Flames from the range can be drawn up into the canopy, and from there into the duct. Keeping filters clean takes some of that fuel away. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Hooe Common rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

When to call us in Hooe Common
Filters get bent and damaged with handling. Damaged filters do not sit flush, leaving gaps for grease to slip through.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A canopy running with filters missing
- A greasy plenum behind the filters
- Poor airflow through the filters
- Staff short of time to wash filters
For schools such as Ninfield Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
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.
Grease, kitchens and Hooe Common
Hooe Common lies within about 3 miles of the sea. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. Fire safety in Hooe Common falls to East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Kitchens in Hooe Common get their food hygiene inspections from Wealden council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Bexhill Hospital (about 3.1 miles south-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Hooe Common, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
