How the job changes from site to site
Fan housings and motors
Belt-driven fans have a drive belt and pulleys that can collect grease. Belts and pulleys are checked and cleaned where safe for your records.
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans also discharge grease onto the roof around them and we check the area around the outlet. We note any grease around the fan.
Extract fan cleaning in Abbotts Ann
Any fan serving a kitchen in Abbotts Ann is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: isolated first, then opened, scraped and degreased. The result is photographed for your records. The work covers centrifugal fans, axial fans and discharge points, and the jobs we see most are thick grease on the impeller and casing and burning smells from the fan area.
Somewhere as small as Abbotts Ann, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Abbotts Ann
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Where the site is and how we reach it
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Want a quote for extract fan cleaning? Please phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us about the site. We’ll talk you through the work and give you a fixed quote before you commit to anything.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Do you need extract fan cleaning in Abbotts Ann?
By the time air reaches the fan, it has passed the canopy, filters and duct. The grease that’s left lands on the blades and the casing, and the spinning blades fling it onto the walls of the housing.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mary the Virgin or anywhere around Abbotts Ann, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the quote shows VAT
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Abbotts Ann
The FSA’s data shows about 3 pubs and bars registered in and around Abbotts Ann, up to about a mile and a half out. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in Abbotts Ann are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. The fire and rescue service for Abbotts Ann 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.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Abbotts Ann
Do you work in villages like Abbotts Ann?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Abbotts Ann included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can school kitchens in Abbotts Ann be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. There are about 2 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Abbotts Ann. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Will I get photos of the cleaned fan?
You get a photo report with before and after pictures of the fan. If it’s part of a full TR19 clean, a TR19 certificate is issued too.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
Daily cooking hours set the minimum, under BESA guidance. Heavy use means at least every 3 months, light use at least every 12, fan included.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
One easily reached fan is quick, while fans on high roofs or in tight voids take longer. We plan it out of hours.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
How the visit works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off.

- It’s closed up, run and checked, and pictures go into your report.
Before we arrive
