Kitchen extraction cleaning in Temple Valley
Kitchen extract cleaning across Temple Valley and nearby, timed so the site keeps working and signed off in writing with photos.
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
Why act early in Temple Valley
Putting it off simply moves the grease further down the duct. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, and that takes more work to shift. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. A planned visit to Temple Valley is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Temple Valley
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers canopies and hoods, vertical risers and discharge points, and common reasons people get in touch are a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer and years of baked-on grease in the ducts. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, it’s the job we do every week across Hampshire.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Temple Valley: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
Work in a small place like Temple Valley starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How the visit works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Temple Valley.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before work begins.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
How to prepare
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Clear loose items from the work area

What else we do in Temple Valley
What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
What affects the quote in Temple Valley
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The size of the system
- The condition of the system
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The site address and the type of premises
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
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.
Part by part
Ductwork and risers
Risers take the extract up through floors to roof level, and grease often collects at the bottom of them. Access panels along the riser let us clean it in sections.
Grease filters
Baffle filters are cleaned as part of every TR19 clean, and put back so they seat correctly. Damaged ones are noted on the report.
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date is not missed.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
Common problems we fix in Temple Valley
We often find duct sections that haven’t been cleaned since they were installed. The usual reason is a lack of access panels, so those sections were never reached. Grease in those sections keeps building out of sight.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
Historic houses near Temple Valley, such as Hinton Ampner House about 4.2 miles east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

Common questions in Temple Valley
Which fire service covers Temple Valley?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Temple Valley. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Can you get to a site in Temple Valley?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Temple Valley included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?
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.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
Grease-filled ducts can carry fire well beyond the kitchen. Many policies say the extract must be cleaned to TR19, and a claim may be reduced without proof, so keep every certificate.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Temple Valley?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before any work starts.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
No law names TR19 directly, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 does require the responsible person to manage fire risk. TR19 is the standard insurers and fire officers expect, and many policies require it.
