Grease filter exchange in Trotton Marsh, Hampshire
A scheduled grease filter exchange, swapping dirty canopy filters for clean ones in Trotton Marsh, surveyed first and signed off with a written report and photos. Call for a fixed quote.
- Bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly
- Poor airflow through the filters
- A greasy plenum behind the filters
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Make sure no filter is left out
Keep an eye out for filters that have been taken out. Gaps let grease into the plenum so tell us if you need a replacement.
Dripping filters are a clear sign they’re full. A clean set straight away cuts the grease in the canopy and the plenum may need a clean as well.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for Trotton Marsh
Who inspects food businesses in Trotton Marsh?
That’s Chichester council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Trotton Marsh. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you work overnight in Trotton Marsh?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Trotton Marsh needn’t be disturbed. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you work in Trotton Marsh?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Trotton Marsh included.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?
It is not. The rest of the system still collects grease at an interval set by risk assessment.

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

How it works
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes well under an hour for most canopies. The timing of a visit to Trotton Marsh is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We start by noting how many filters you have and what type they are.
- We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
- On each visit, the dirty filters come out of the canopy.
- Clean, dry filters are fitted in their place, with no gaps left between them.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
How to get a quote
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Part by part
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
Kitchens that fry and grill all day load their filters fast. Their exchange schedule is typically the tightest.
Baffle filters
Baffle filters are a common choice for commercial canopies. They still need regular cleaning, because the grease they collect builds up.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Signs you need grease filter exchange in Trotton Marsh
Kitchens in Trotton Marsh, 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.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Grease collecting in the filter channels
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Staff short of time to wash filters
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Cowdray House is about 4.2 miles south-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
