We’re often asked to deal with rough running from the extract fan and a fan that no longer moves enough air, across discharge points, axial fans and fan housings.
For a kitchen in or near Ashurst Bridge, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

How we price extract fan cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition we find in the survey
- How easy every part is to reach
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Any previous report or certificate
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Extract fan cleaning around Ashurst Bridge
The coast is only about 3 miles from Ashurst Bridge. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 17 pubs and bars within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Ashurst Bridge. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. The fire and rescue service for Ashurst Bridge 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.
A hospital like Ashurst Hospital, about 1.4 miles south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Southampton Tudor House and Garden is about 4.8 miles east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. School kitchens, at schools like Hazel Wood Infant School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Don’t store items in front of the fan’s access point
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
File the photo report with your other extract records. It shows the fan’s condition at the time of the clean, which helps if anything changes later.
Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller and early action can save a repair.
Why act early in Ashurst Bridge
Grease on the fan is grease in the system. TR19® Grease covers the whole extract, fan included, and insurers asking for TR19 cleaning expect the full system. It’s simpler to plan the work at Ashurst Bridge now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

In-house cleaning or 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, next to our reports.
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 we do, step by step
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Somewhere like Ashurst Bridge, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan cleaning won’t do:
- Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
- An impeller that is bent or split
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.

FAQs for Ashurst Bridge
Who inspects food businesses in Ashurst Bridge?
Kitchens in Ashurst Bridge are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Does being near the coast affect extract fan cleaning in Ashurst Bridge?
It can, as Ashurst Bridge is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at every visit.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
The fan is isolated before we open it, so it can’t run during the clean. With the extract off, the kitchen cannot cook, so we work out of hours.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
That depends on the fan’s size, its position and how much grease there is. As a guide, it takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Do you provide a report after cleaning the fan?
Every clean has a photo report, with anything we noticed. A full clean adds a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
