How we handle extract fan cleaning in Dedworth
Think of the fan as the system’s heart and the grease as a clot. A greasy fan works harder and moves less air. Our job is to clear it, check it runs smoothly and record what we found, before signing it off. Typical jobs include hot, greasy smells near the fan and thick grease on the impeller and casing, across axial fans, discharge points and roof-mounted fans.
For a smaller kitchen near Dedworth, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Part by part
Impellers and blades
Coated blades move less air. We clean each blade back to its surface, so the fan can run as intended.
Wall fans
With little duct before them, wall fans collect grease fast. They may need cleaning as often as the canopy, which grease readings will show.
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep records of every fan clean
- Keep access to the fan clear
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
We take away the grease and dirty water from the fan clean. On a roof or outside wall, we leave the surrounding area tidy.
Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
When to call us in Dedworth
Grease on a fan is a fire risk, in Dedworth as anywhere. A fire in the duct can reach the fan and the grease around it and an overworked motor runs hotter.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- A heavily greased fan housing
- Weak extraction at the canopy
Where a hall near All Saints Church, or anywhere in Dedworth, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

- The times the site is available

Dedworth questions
Do you cover smaller places like Dedworth?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can the work in Dedworth be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Dedworth can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you clean the fan on its own?
Yes, we can clean just the fan. That helps when the fan needs attention before the next full clean, but it does not replace a full TR19 clean.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before work begins.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes. The whole system is cleaned, from the canopy to the discharge, and the fan is a key part of it, so it’s cleaned too.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. For a site near Dedworth, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Move anything stored near the system
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
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.
