How we handle extract fan cleaning in Englefield Green
Grease on a fan is not spread evenly. Uneven build-up unbalances the impeller, leading to vibration, noise and strain on the motor and bearings. Cleaning the impeller and housing puts that right. If you have vibration from an unbalanced impeller and a fan that hums, whines or rumbles, we can help, from axial fans, discharge points and in-line fans onwards.
Around a smaller place like Englefield Green, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Why deal with it now?
Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. A site near Englefield Green that has to close at short notice is hard to cover for.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.

What extract fan cleaning looks like in Englefield Green
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 63 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 13 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Englefield Green, up to about a mile and a half out. Each kitchen extract among them ends at a fan, and grease on the impeller strains the motor. In Englefield Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Runnymede council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Englefield Green sits within the area of Surrey 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.

FAQs for Englefield Green
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Englefield Green out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 12 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Englefield Green. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Who inspects food businesses in Englefield Green?
In Englefield Green, it’s Runnymede council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Can you fix a fan that is worn out?
A fan that needs repair is noted on the report, with what we found. We offer extract fan repair and replacement, and there’s a 24/7 emergency callout for breakdowns.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
What’s the cleaning interval for an extract fan?
Daily cooking hours set the minimum, under BESA guidance. At the extremes, that is 3-monthly for heavy use and 12-monthly for light use, fan included.
How do you protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, the fan is part of a full TR19® Grease clean. We clean it alongside the canopy, ductwork and discharge.
Part by part
Roof-mounted fans
A roof fan sits in cooler air, so grease can settle heavily. We scrape and degrease the blades and casing.
Wall fans
Grease can mark the outside wall around the fan. We clean the fan and check the outlet.
What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards.

- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Getting ready for the visit
