How we handle extract fan cleaning in Boorley Green

Cleaning removes grease, not wear. Anything that looks worn or damaged goes on the report, and we also repair and replace extract fans. You’ll know whether the fan just needed cleaning or something more. If you are dealing with grease around the motor and its mounts and hot, greasy smells near the fan, we can help, from roof-mounted fans, centrifugal fans and discharge points onwards.

Around a smaller place like Boorley Green, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Boorley Green kitchens: local notes

Food Standards Agency data counts about 19 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 3 takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Boorley Green. Where they cook under a canopy, an extract fan is pulling grease-laden air through its blades every service. It’s Eastleigh council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Boorley Green. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Boorley Green sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.

A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Luke's Church or elsewhere in Boorley Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. For schools such as Berrywood Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Looking after it afterwards

Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Make sure the fan is included each time
  • Notice when the fan starts to sound different
  • Check filters are seated before cooking
  • Do not turn the fan off mid-service

The photo report shows the fan before and after cleaning. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.

Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Boorley Green

Grease builds up unevenly on the blades. The difference throws the impeller off balance and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.

The symptoms we’re asked about most include:

  • A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
  • Grease stains around the discharge
  • An extract fan with no cleaning record
  • Vibration from an unbalanced impeller

Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Moorgreen Hospital is the nearest hospital to Boorley Green, about 1.9 miles west.

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

What a clean will not put right

Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
  • Grease in the canopy and ductwork
  • Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Boorley Green

Do you clean school canteen extracts around Boorley Green out of term?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Boorley Green, the Food Standards Agency lists about 7 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.

Which fire authority looks after Boorley Green?

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Boorley Green. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.

What if the fan needs more than a clean?

Cleaning removes grease, but it can’t fix worn parts. We repair and replace extract fans as well, with a fixed quote first.

What makes a kitchen extract fan vibrate?

An unbalanced impeller, usually from uneven grease, is a common cause. We clean the fan and tell you if anything else, like worn bearings, is to blame.

Is TR19 a legal requirement?

No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that can’t wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.

What should I send you?

Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.

Why it’s worth doing now in Boorley Green

A fan that sounds rough in Boorley Green is often telling you the extract needs a clean. If the fan is coated, the duct before it normally is too so a full TR19 clean may be due. In a smaller place like Boorley Green, a site that has to close is felt quickly.

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

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

For landlords and multi-site operators

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Part by part

Fan housings and motors

Inside the casing, grease is thrown onto the walls. It’s scraped and degreased with the impeller.

Roof-mounted fans

Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface, so the outlet area is checked too. We note any grease around the fan.

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 photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Boorley Green when you book.

  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. Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
  5. The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Ask for a quote

Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
