Description

Our range of canopy filters are designed protect the air ducting, from kitchens, and keep working environments safe.  They will capture grease, and dust, and stop flames from entering the extraction ducting so can be used to eliminate the risk of fire in this area.

Our range consists of three different designs constructed from different finishes including stainless steel, galvanised, and aluminium.  Our GREASE FILTERS are generally used for the capture of grease, metal BAFFLE FILTERS to reduce the possibility of flames entering extraction ducting and our DUAL PREMIUM are a combination of both the grease and baffle filters so is very effective at capturing grease but includes baffles to inhibit flames.

With our Grease Filters, we offer three options for the frame/mesh being stainless steel, aluminium and galvanised steel.  Each filter is supplied with collapsible carry handles to make installation and removal easier, quicker and safer.  

The primary function of the Baffle Filters is to reduce the possibility that flames could travel from the cooking or preparation area into the extraction ducting. To ensure a long life, our baffles are manufactured from rolled stainless steel which is welded onto a sub frame which in turn is wrapped within the stainless steel outer frame.

The Dual Premium is a combination filter, utilising both baffle technology and the mesh of the grease filter to you with both optimum grease removal and flame protection in a single extraction filter.

All of our canopy filters can be gently cleaned by rising with hot water and a mild detergent or they can be soaked in a mild detergent solution and rinsed with clean water.  You must ensure that the clean filters are completely dry before being re-installed into the extraction hood or holding frame.  

We have listed standard measurements but all of these filters can be made to your bespoke size, so if the size of filter that you require is not shown, contact us on +44 (0)1673895130 or visit our Contact Us page where you can complete a form.

FAQs

Can I clean these filters?
Yes, you can wash our baffles and grease filters regardless of their construction material. For the best results the filter should be sprayed with a mild detergent and left for a short while for the detergent to soften and break-down the captured grease or smoke staining. They can then be rinsed with warm/hot water and gently brushed. The filters should be allowed to completely dry before being installed. To aid with this many of our filters have drain holes within their frames.

Which way should these filters be fitted?
The Dual Premium filters are fitted with the baffles facing the cooking area and the mesh facing away from the cooking area. This is because the baffle is to protect against flames and the mesh against grease so, with fire being the obvious higher risk, it is important to protect the ducting from fire hence why the baffle should be facing forwards. However, all filters are fitted with handles on one side so it is this side that faces the working area.

The sizes I need aren't shown?
This isn't a problem as we can make these canopy filters to any size so just contact us, give us the sizes you need and we will confirm the price. You can call us on +44 (0)1673895130 or visit our Contact Us page.

Which is the best material and which should I use?Obviously the stainless steel frame and mesh is the best option as it will not only last longer than the other two but also looks better when installed so if you have a customer facing kitchen then this could be a nice option for you. However, as with most things, the best option does have the highest price. All of the options offer the same technical performance so the choice is really a matter of personal preference based upon price and appearance.

Can I have panels without handles?
We can make the filters without handles but this is not our standard construction so there will be a slight delay of 2-3 weeks as they are classed as a special build. If you want to purchase frames without the handles then you just need to contact us and we will confirm the unit price and delivery time.

How do I know which thickness I should have?
If you are replacing an existing panel then you are probably best to stick with the overall dimensions of the original as you will be sure that the replacement will fit the hood or frame and that the airflow will be correct. If you haven't got the original filter or are making a hood or extraction framework then you are best to look at the airflow rating of the different panels which you will see in the Product Specification. You may need to know the size or airflow rating of your extraction fan.
