Keeping the system healthy

Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:

  • Wipe the outside of the canopy as part of daily cleaning
  • Never leave gaps in the filter bank
  • Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
  • Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits

There’s no waiting: the canopy is ready as soon as the clean set is fitted. The dirty set leaves with us to be cleaned.

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

Grease filter exchange in Warnborough Green, done properly

A filter that doesn’t sit right lets grease straight past. Gaps in the filter bank are a direct route into the plenum, so we check every one at each visit. We point out any that need replacing. We’re often asked to deal with filters that leave gaps in the canopy and filters so greasy the air can barely pass, across wall canopies, island canopies and baffle filters.

In a village or hamlet like Warnborough Green, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

When to call us in Warnborough Green

Filters get bent and damaged with handling. Damaged filters do not sit flush, leaving gaps for grease to slip through.

Keep an eye out for these warning signs:

  • Grease building up behind the canopy filters
  • Poor airflow through the filters
  • Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
  • Filters left unwashed on busy weeks

Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mary the Virgin or anywhere around Warnborough Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.

Warnborough Green: your questions answered

Can school kitchens in Warnborough Green be cleaned in the holidays?

Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 6 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Warnborough Green, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.

Which fire authority looks after Warnborough Green?

Warnborough Green is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.

What about areas you cannot get to?

They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

What paperwork should we keep on file?

Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.

What does grease filter exchange cost?

Filters, canopies and how often you need visits all affect the price. Tell us what you have and we will come back with a fixed quote, normally within one working day.

Will we have to stop cooking for a filter change?

An exchange doesn’t take long, and can be booked outside service times. The clean set goes in as soon as the dirty one comes out.

What if some of our filters are damaged?

Damaged filters don’t seat properly and let grease through. We point them out on the visit and explain what’s needed.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.

What affects the cost of grease filter exchange

Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The size of the system
  • How easy every part is to reach

Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks

To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will typically have a quote within one working day.

Why deal with it now?

Grease-loaded filters are a fire risk in their own right. Flames from the range can be drawn up into the canopy and grease in the duct can carry a fire further. Keeping filters clean takes some of that fuel away. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.

What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Why us?

  • Fixed quotes, typically within one working day
  • Survey first, then a fixed quote
  • We’re fully insured
  • Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout

How it works

Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Warnborough Green run smoothly.

  1. The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
  2. We set the interval with you.
  3. The dirty set is lifted out.
  4. Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
  5. We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.

Preparing for the visit

  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Find the previous report, if there is one

How to get a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

What a clean won’t put right

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • An extract that was undersized from the start
  • Grease behind the filters that a swap can’t remove
  • Extraction problems caused by the fan rather than the filters

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think.
