About our extract fan cleaning in Blissford

Any fan serving a kitchen in Blissford is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: we isolate it, open the housing, scrape the impeller and degrease the lot. The result is photographed for your records. If you have rough running from the extract fan and a heavily greased fan housing, we can put it right, from centrifugal fans, axial fans and in-line fans onwards.

Work in a small place like Blissford starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Aftercare tips

Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Watch for grease marks around the outlet
  • Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
  • Keep access to the fan clear
  • Flag smoke lingering at the canopy

When we’ve finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.

Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller and early action can save a repair.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Blissford

A fan in Blissford builds up grease at a rate set by the kitchen, not the location: how many hours a day the kitchen runs and what it cooks. BESA guidance sets minimum intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months for the whole system by daily use.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • Thick grease on the impeller and casing
  • An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
  • A fan that no longer moves enough air
  • Grease escaping from the fan outlet

Breamore House, about 3.8 miles north, is one of the historic houses near Blissford; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

Questions to ask before booking

How the job changes from site to site

Kitchens with long cooking hours

A long-hours kitchen can’t afford a fan failure. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.

Impellers and blades

The impeller is the spinning part that moves the air, and it collects grease unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.

Multi-site and managed buildings

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

The process

There’s very little for your team to do 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. Visits to a village like Blissford are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  1. First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
  2. With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
  3. Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
  4. We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
  5. The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

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.

Yes, and that’s how we prefer to work. The visit is timed for when the area isn’t in use, such as late evening, overnight or a weekend.

Extract fan cleaning in Blissford: the local picture

According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 4 pubs, bars and clubs across Blissford and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Kitchens in Blissford get their food hygiene inspections from New Forest council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Blissford. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of the Holy Ascension or anywhere around Blissford, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. School kitchens, at schools like Hyde Church of England Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Why it’s worth doing now in Blissford

An unbalanced fan gets worse, not better. It wears bearings and mounts and can lead to a breakdown, which may leave the kitchen without extraction. Cleaning it early is far less disruptive. In a place like Blissford, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
