Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Peasemore
Baffle filters and mesh filters both fill with grease. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the extract struggles. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. If you have weak extraction at the canopy and grease left in baffles after washing, we can help, from island canopies, mesh filters and wall canopies onwards.
Work in a small place like Peasemore starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Signs you need grease filter exchange in Peasemore
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.
Clients normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Grease collecting in the filter channels
- Bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly
- Gaps where filters have been removed
- Smoke and heat lingering under the hood
Where a hall near Church of St Barnabas, or anywhere in Peasemore, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
What your quote should include
- Proof of insurance
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
Part by part
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
In a busy kitchen, filter washing is easy to skip. A regular exchange means nobody has to remember.
Baffle filters
Baffle filters are robust and widely used in commercial canopies. They don’t clean themselves as the collected grease builds up between the blades.
What we do, step by step
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. For a village or hamlet like Peasemore, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- 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.
- We fit clean filters and check they sit snugly in the housing.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Move anything stored near the system
How to get a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Why deal with it now?
In Peasemore, as everywhere, a filter service isn’t a substitute for TR19 cleaning. But clean filters do help the system between cleans, and that shows when the next clean comes round. In a place like Peasemore, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Your questions about grease filter exchange in Peasemore
Which fire service covers Peasemore?
That’s Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Do you work in villages like Peasemore?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Peasemore included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
Do you deal with bent or broken filters?
A badly damaged filter should be replaced. We will show you which ones on the visit.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?
No, the two work together. A TR19® clean deals with the whole system, with a certificate and photo report.

Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Look out for drips from the canopy
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Clear anything stored on or near the canopy
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
The next exchange is already in the diary. If the kitchen gets busier, the interval can be shortened to keep up.
If filters are already dripping, they’re overdue. A clean set straight away cuts the grease in the canopy and the plenum may need a clean as well.
When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- An extract that was undersized from the start
- Odours from the discharge that filters will not stop
- A fan that’s failing or too weak for the system
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
