Bepton extract fan cleaning
Cleaning of kitchen extract fans, impellers, fan housings and discharge points in Bepton, surveyed first and signed off with a written report and photos. Call for a fixed quote.
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- A fan that has never been cleaned
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
What a clean won’t put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Extract fan cleaning in Bepton
Kitchen extract fans come in different forms: fans on the roof, fans built into the duct run, and fans on an outside wall. The way in depends on the type, and we plan that during the survey. Typical jobs include grease escaping from the fan outlet and a noisy fan that has got louder over time, on roof-mounted fans, centrifugal fans and fan housings.
Work in a small place like Bepton starts with a call to agree access and timings, 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.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Bepton?
By the time air reaches the fan, it has passed the canopy, filters and duct. The grease that is left lands on the blades and the casing, and the spinning blades fling it onto the walls of the housing.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
Church and community hall kitchens, near The Parish Church of St Mary or anywhere around Bepton, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
What your quote should include
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether a survey comes first

Extract fan cleaning in Bepton: the local picture
Bepton is covered by West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Environmental health officers from Chichester council inspect food businesses in Bepton. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Midhurst Community Hospital (about 3 miles north-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Bepton (Cowdray House is about 2.7 miles north-east), fitting access panels needs care.

FAQs for Bepton
Do you cover smaller places like Bepton?
Yes, Bepton is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which environmental health team covers Bepton?
Food hygiene inspections in Bepton are carried out by Chichester council. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes, the fan is part of a full TR19® Grease clean. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned along with the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts and discharge.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Different parts, different methods
Roof-mounted fans
Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface, so the outlet area is checked too. Heavy staining is noted on the report.
Impellers and blades
Coated blades move less air. We clean each blade back to its surface, so the fan can run as intended.
Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Bepton
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- What state the system is in
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The site address and the type of premises
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Report rattles or humming early
You get before and after pictures of the impeller and housing. It notes what was done and anything that couldn’t be reached, along with the recommended next clean date.
Fewer grease particles reaching the fan means less build-up. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.
What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes an hour or two for most single fans. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Bepton and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
