Grease filter exchange in Hurstbourne Tarrant, done properly
Filter exchange sits between full TR19® cleans. Fresh filters help limit what gets into the ductwork though vapour still carries some grease past them. That is why the whole system still needs cleaning to TR19 at the right interval. Typical jobs include filters that come out of the sink still dirty and poor airflow through the filters, on wall canopies, mesh filters and restaurants and pubs.
For a kitchen in or near Hurstbourne Tarrant, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What else we do in Hurstbourne Tarrant
Do you need grease filter exchange in Hurstbourne Tarrant?
What a kitchen cooks affects how fast filters clog. Frying, grilling and chargrilling produce far more grease than steaming or baking, so the right exchange interval varies.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Poor airflow through the filters
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Filter washing that keeps being missed
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
For schools such as Hurstbourne Tarrant Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether they’re fully insured
How the job changes from site to site
Baffle filters
In a baffle filter, the air zigzags through metal baffles. Grease drops out as it does.
Canopy filter housings
Every exchange includes a check of how the filters sit, because gaps let grease through.

Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.

What affects the cost of grease filter exchange
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How big the system is
- How many systems or sites are involved
- A single visit or a regular plan
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
What happens if it’s left?
Washing filters in-house is an option for kitchens in Hurstbourne Tarrant, and it works when it’s done well and never skipped. Where it slips, an exchange service takes the job off staff. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Your questions about grease filter exchange in Hurstbourne Tarrant
Can you work in Hurstbourne Tarrant outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Hurstbourne Tarrant can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which fire authority looks after Hurstbourne Tarrant?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Hurstbourne Tarrant. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
What if some of our filters are damaged?
Filters that no longer fit properly need replacing. We’ll show you which ones on the visit.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
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.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes well under an hour for most canopies. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Hurstbourne Tarrant.
- We start by noting how many filters you have and what type they are.
- A change schedule is agreed to match the kitchen’s cooking hours.
- Each visit starts with the used filters being removed.
- Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
