Need extract fan cleaning in Ashley Green?

What we’re called out for in Ashley Green

A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. When filters do not seal, grease goes straight through to the fan, so the fan takes far more than it should.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Hot, greasy smells near the fan
  • A noisy fan that has got louder over time
  • A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
  • An extract fan with no cleaning record

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Hemel Hempstead Hospital (about 5 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

About our extract fan cleaning in Ashley Green

Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and you’ll get a fixed price, usually within one working day. The work covers axial fans, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans, and common reasons people get in touch are an extract fan with no cleaning record and burning smells from the fan area.

For a kitchen in or near Ashley Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Extract fan cleaning around Ashley Green

According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 pubs and bars in and around Ashley Green, up to about a mile and a half out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council inspect food businesses in Ashley Green. 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. Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Ashley Green. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Parish Church of St John the Evangelist or elsewhere in Ashley Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Ashlyns School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ashley Green

A greasy fan at the discharge can spread grease onto the roof or wall around it. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. If the system at a site near Ashley Green fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

Take a look at what affects the cost and our accreditations and certificates.

How the job changes from site to site

Fan housings and motors

Some fans use a belt drive. Belts and pulleys are checked and cleaned where safe for your records.

Inline duct fans

Some fans are built into the duct itself. We get to them through the duct or casing after isolating them.

What we do, step by step

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. For a village or hamlet like Ashley Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
  2. It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
  3. Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
  4. The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
  5. We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Getting a quote

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.

Questions from Ashley Green

Can you come to Ashley Green after we close?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Ashley Green can fit around your hours. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Can you get to a site in Ashley Green?

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Ashley Green included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

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 is not law, but it’s the benchmark.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?

A fan that needs repair is noted on the report, with what we found. We offer extract fan repair and replacement, and if it fails outright, our 24/7 emergency line is there.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.

Which accreditations do you hold?

We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.

Who is the responsible person?

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

How we price extract fan cleaning

Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • The times the site is available
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to have:

  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see

For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
