- Grease already built up in the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19

About our grease filter exchange in Peartree Green
In Peartree Green, our filter exchange runs on a schedule set by how much the kitchen cooks. The heavier the cooking, the more often filters need changing while a lighter kitchen can go longer. We agree the interval with you at the start. The work covers mesh filters, island canopies and restaurants and pubs, and common reasons people get in touch are filters left unwashed on busy weeks and damaged filters letting grease past.
For a smaller kitchen near Peartree Green, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Why it’s worth doing now in Peartree Green
For any kitchen in Peartree Green, filters can’t stand in for a full TR19 clean. They do help keep the system in better shape between cleans, and that shows when the next clean comes round. A quieter site near Peartree Green still needs its system looked after.

How the job changes from site to site
Mesh filters
Mesh filters are still found in many canopies. They can be on the same exchange schedule as baffle filters.
Canopy filter housings
Grease collects in the channels and drip trays below the filters. We point it out if it needs cleaning.
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Do not let the full clean slip because filters are changed
- Mention it if the kitchen gets busier
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
- Tell us if a filter is bent or damaged
Once the clean filters are in, the kitchen can cook straight away. We take the greasy filters with us to be cleaned.
If cooking has stepped up, the filter schedule should too. Adjusting the schedule now prevents a build-up in the ducts.
How it works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes less than an hour in most kitchens, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Peartree Green.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Southampton. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

What paperwork should we keep on file?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.
Do you work in Peartree Green?
Yes. Peartree Green is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.
How often should grease filters be changed?
The right interval depends on the kitchen. If filters are dripping or clogging before the next change, it’s too long, and we can change it.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
