Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Burgh Heath
Kitchen extract fans come in different forms: roof-mounted units, inline fans within the duct, and wall fans. Each is isolated and opened in its own way, and we plan that during the survey. The work covers centrifugal fans, in-line fans and fan housings, and common reasons people get in touch are vibration from an unbalanced impeller and grease stains around the discharge.
In a small place like Burgh Heath, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Common problems we fix in Burgh Heath
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. Missing, damaged or badly fitted filters let grease travel the whole system, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Mary's, or anywhere in Burgh Heath, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Questions to ask before you book
- Proof of insurance
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- If they look at the system before pricing

What extract fan cleaning can’t fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
- An impeller that’s bent or split
- A fan that won’t start
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Keep access to the fan clear
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
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.
Fewer grease particles reaching the fan means less build-up. Keep the grease filters clean, fitted and in place, and replace any that are damaged.
Different parts, different methods
Roof-mounted fans
On a roof, the air is cooler and grease drops out faster. The impeller and housing are scraped and degreased.
Inline duct fans
Some fans are built into the duct itself. They’re reached through access panels or by opening the casing after isolating them.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Burgh Heath
Food Standards Agency records list about 35 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 9 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Burgh Heath. The fan at the end of each of those extracts collects grease that slows it and wears the motor. Food hygiene inspections in Burgh Heath are the job of Reigate and Banstead council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Burgh Heath falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Banstead Hospital (about 2.2 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 Burgh Heath (Fitznells Manor is about 3.4 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care.

Burgh Heath questions
Who is the fire and rescue service for Burgh Heath?
That is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Burgh Heath out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. There are about 6 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Burgh Heath. You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the dates the site is empty.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. We need the work area to ourselves while we are on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Do you provide a report after cleaning the fan?
A photo report, including the fan’s condition and the next clean date. File it with your other extract records.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
The fan is isolated before we open it, so it cannot start while we work. That means the extract is off, so we clean while the kitchen is closed.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Burgh Heath
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What happens on the day
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach, and we clear up before we go. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Burgh Heath before we set off.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
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.
