Frequently Asked Questions

Are baffle filters a legal requirement?

Commercial kitchen canopies should incorporate suitable grease filtration in accordance with the system design and relevant guidance, including DW/172. Insurers may also set specific requirements. UL 1046 is a recognised test standard for grease filters used in commercial exhaust systems. Always check the project specification and your insurer’s conditions before selecting a filter.

What sizes are available and how fast can you deliver?

Baffles come in the standard sizes used across UK canopies; tell us your existing filter dimensions and we will confirm availability and lead time, typically from stock.

When should I upgrade from baffle to high-efficiency filters?

An upgrade is worth considering where grease accumulation, manual filter-cleaning time or TR19® Grease cleaning costs are becoming significant. Standard baffle filters may capture around 20–40% of grease, while high-efficiency options can achieve substantially higher capture rates. We can assess the potential operational and cost benefits for your site.

Maintenance and Cleaning of Baffle Filters

Baffle filters play a critical role as a primary grease filtration method within commercial kitchen canopies, capturing grease at source before it can enter the wider extraction system.

Routine maintenance of the filters should be carried out frequently, as grease build-up on filters can quickly reduce airflow efficiency and increase fire risk if left unmanaged.

Cleaning frequency will depend on the type and volume of cooking. High-grease operations such as frying or chargrilling may require daily cleaning, while lower-demand kitchens may incorporate filter cleaning into a weekly maintenance routine.
