Different parts, different methods
Grease filters
Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. Cleans are planned between meals or overnight, so residents and patients aren’t disturbed.

Grease, kitchens and Dumpford
The fire and rescue service for Dumpford is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. It’s Chichester council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Dumpford. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Cowdray House is about 3.8 miles east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Midhurst Community Hospital about 3.6 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Advice
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Dumpford
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Dumpford?
The local authority for Dumpford is Chichester council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Can you get to a site in Dumpford?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
When do you clean the extract?
Cleans are timed to avoid service. Most kitchens book us overnight or at weekends, so you do not lose a service.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
How often should a kitchen extract be cleaned?
The minimum is set by BESA guidance on daily use, from 3-monthly to 12-monthly. Kitchens that fry or grill a lot may need cleaning sooner, which grease thickness testing will show.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Typically, yes. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we normally come back within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we’ll survey first.
Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?
All of it, from the canopy through to the discharge. Where there are not enough access panels to reach a section, it’s recorded, and we can fit new ones.
What accreditations do you hold?
We’re members of Vent Hygiene Elite, the scheme run by BESCA, and we clean to BESA TR19® Grease. We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 too, and we’re fully insured.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Dumpford?
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. Flames from a pan or grill can be pulled into the canopy by the fan, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. For a kitchen in Dumpford, keeping that fuel under control is part of the fire risk assessment.
These are the problems we see most often:
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St George's Church, or anywhere in Dumpford, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Dumpford
Environmental health officers inspect food businesses, in Dumpford as everywhere else, and a greasy canopy or dripping filters will not go unnoticed. Keeping the extract clean helps the whole kitchen pass muster. In a place like Dumpford, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
