Hampshire · Grease filter exchange
Grease filter exchange in Hyde, Hampshire
Need grease filter exchange in Hyde? We diagnose first, fix the price and book the work around your hours, finishing with a written report and pictures.
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Filters that come out of the sink still dirty
- Bent or damaged filters that do not sit properly
Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Report a dripping canopy early
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Mention it if the kitchen gets busier
Between visits, check that every filter is still in place. A missing filter leaves a gap for grease so tell us if you need a replacement.
Bent or missing filters let grease straight past. Sorting them now keeps grease where it can be caught.
Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Hyde
A clean set of filters is a simple, regular dose of prevention. Between full cleans, it keeps the airflow healthy, and it saves your staff a greasy job. The full TR19 clean then gives the system its clean bill of health. Typical jobs include hand-washed filters that still look greasy and smoke and heat lingering under the hood, across mesh filters, baffle filters and restaurants and pubs.
Work in a small place like Hyde 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.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Different parts, different methods
Baffle filters
Baffle filters are a common choice for commercial canopies. They don’t clean themselves as the collected grease builds up between the blades.
Canopy filter housings
Every exchange includes a check of how the filters sit, because gaps let grease through.
Your questions about grease filter exchange in Hyde
Can you come to Hyde after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Hyde?
Hyde is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
What happens to the dirty filters?
We take them away to be cleaned and your staff do not have to deal with them. Clean filters go straight in.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, on every job. The report is dated and includes photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. File it with your fire safety records.
Fixed quotes for grease filter exchange in Hyde
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- How big the system is
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The condition we find in the survey
- Parking and loading at the site
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The postcode and the type of business
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Kitchen extracts in Hyde
There are about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Hyde, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Where they cook under a canopy, the grease filters are the first line of defence and clog quickly. Hyde sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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. In Hyde, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Holy Ascension or elsewhere in Hyde, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. School kitchens, at schools like Hyde Church of England Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

How it works

The visit takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Hyde.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- We exchange the dirty filters for a clean set.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Hyde
Kitchens in Hyde, as everywhere, find filter washing slips down the list on busy weeks. A missed wash or two is all it takes for a filter bank to clog.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- A canopy running with filters missing
- Grease left in baffles after washing
- A greasy plenum behind the filters
- A canopy that drips grease
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hyde (Breamore House is about 4.4 miles north), fitting access panels needs care.
