Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in South Mundham
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. The work covers restaurants and pubs, island canopies and baffle filters, and people most often call us about blocked baffle filters and hand-washed filters that still look greasy.
Somewhere as small as South Mundham, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for South Mundham
Do you work at weekends in South Mundham?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in South Mundham needn’t be disturbed. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Does the sea air around South Mundham make a difference to grease filter exchange?
It can. South Mundham is within about 2 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What if some of our filters are damaged?
A bent filter leaves a gap for grease. We flag any we find so they can be replaced.
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 service starts.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across West Sussex. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to South Mundham.

Grease filter exchange in South Mundham: the local picture
The coast is only about 2 miles from South Mundham. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. There are about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within about 1.5 miles of central South Mundham, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each canopy among them has filters that load with grease and need swapping or cleaning. The fire and rescue service for South Mundham is West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St Stephen, or anywhere in South Mundham, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to South Mundham is St Richard's Hospital, about 3.1 miles north.

Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Don’t refit a filter that’s bent
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
- Watch for grease drips between visits
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.
Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. Getting onto a regular exchange now keeps grease out of the plenum and ductwork between full cleans.
Why deal with it now?
Some kitchens in South Mundham wash filters themselves to save the cost of a service, and that can work if it’s done thoroughly and on time. When it doesn’t happen reliably, an exchange makes it automatic. Somewhere as small as South Mundham, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Mesh filters
Mesh filters use layers of metal mesh to trap grease. They clog quickly in a busy kitchen and need frequent attention.
School, care home and staff kitchens
A longer exchange interval may suit lighter cooking. We agree the schedule to match.
