How we handle grease filter exchange in Rushmoor

In Rushmoor, our filter exchange runs on a schedule set by how much the kitchen cooks. The heavier the cooking, the more often filters need changing, lighter ones less. The interval is agreed before the first visit. If you have bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly and smoke and heat lingering under the hood, we can help.

In a village or hamlet like Rushmoor, 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.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Keeping the system healthy

A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:

  • Look out for drips from the canopy
  • Always run the extract while cooking
  • Don’t let the full clean slip because filters are changed
  • Keep every filter in place during service

Your team carries on as normal, without the filter washing. Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day and let us know of any changes to opening hours.

If cooking has stepped up, the filter schedule should too. Adjusting the schedule now prevents a build-up behind the canopy.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Grease already built up in the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
  • A canopy too small for the cooking beneath it
  • A canopy that needs a proper clean

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Where we work

  • Wall canopies
  • Island canopies
  • Mesh filters
  • Restaurants and pubs
  • Baffle filters
  • School and hospital kitchens

Part by part

Canopy filter housings

Grease collects in the channels and drip trays below the filters. We point it out if it needs cleaning.

Mesh filters

Layers of mesh catch grease droplets. In a busy kitchen, mesh soon blocks, so they need changing often.

What we’re called out for in Rushmoor

What a kitchen cooks affects how fast filters clog. Fryers, grills and woks load filters faster than ovens and steamers, so the right exchange interval varies.

Clients typically contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Blocked baffle filters
  • Poor airflow through the filters
  • Damaged filters letting grease past
  • Grease building up behind the canopy filters

Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Haslemere and District Hospital is the nearest hospital to Rushmoor, about 4.9 miles south.

Questions to ask before you book

Why deal with it now?

Some kitchens in Rushmoor wash filters themselves to save the cost of a service, and that can work if it’s done thoroughly and on time. Where it slips, an exchange service takes the job off staff. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

What happens on the day

We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. Somewhere as small as Rushmoor, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. First, we record the size, type and number of filters in each canopy.
  2. A change schedule is agreed to match the kitchen’s cooking hours.
  3. Each visit starts with the used filters being removed.
  4. Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
  5. If a filter is damaged or the plenum needs attention, we tell you.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Advice

Common questions in Rushmoor

Do you work at weekends in Rushmoor?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.

Do you work in villages like Rushmoor?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Rushmoor is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

What types of filter do you exchange?

Baffle filters and mesh filters. Tell us what you have when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will confirm it on site.

Where does the waste go?

It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.

How do you protect the area?

Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.

How far ahead should we book?

For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

What does grease filter exchange cost?

Pricing depends on the kitchen, so we quote once we know your filters and schedule. We send you a fixed quote before the first visit.
