FAQs for Chale Green
Do you work in villages like Chale Green?
Yes. Chale Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you work in Chale Green outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Chale Green does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Can you fix a fan that is worn out?
Fan repair and replacement is part of what we do. If we find wear or damage, we’ll explain it and give you a fixed quote.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
How long will it take to clean the fan?
A single accessible fan doesn’t take long, while fans on high roofs or in tight voids take longer. It’s done while the kitchen is closed.
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.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
How we handle extract fan cleaning in Chale Green
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it draws the air through the canopy and ductwork and pushes it outside. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing, and that is what we clean. The work covers discharge points, axial fans and centrifugal fans, and common reasons people get in touch are an extract fan with no cleaning record and a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease.
For a kitchen in or near Chale Green, 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.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Chale Green run smoothly.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- The fan is isolated so it cannot start while we work.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
- It’s closed up, run and checked, and pictures go into your report.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Clear the space around the work
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Chale Green kitchens: local notes
Chale Green is within about 2 miles of the coast. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. Chale Green is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Environmental health officers from Isle of Wight council inspect food businesses in Chale Green. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Historic houses near Chale Green, such as Wolverton Manor about 2.5 miles north-west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Church and community hall kitchens, near St. James' Church or anywhere around Chale Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Keep records of every fan clean
You get before and after photos of the impeller and housing. It notes what was done and anything that couldn’t be reached, along with the recommended next clean date.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Grease settles faster when the air stops moving, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
Different parts, different methods
Impellers and blades
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: cracks, bent blades or wear. Anything we see goes on the report.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, which means grease and wear add up quickly. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- Damaged fan blades
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Chale Green
The fan sits at the end of the grease’s journey. Whatever grease is still in it settles on the impeller and inside the housing where the spinning blades spread it around.
What we’re most often called out for:
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Whitecroft Hospital about 3.9 miles north, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
