About our extract fan cleaning in Fawley
Every TR19® Grease clean includes the extract fan, but a fan can also need attention on its own, especially when it has started to vibrate or sound rough. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. If you have an extract fan with no cleaning record and rough running from the extract fan, we can put it right, from fan housings, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans onwards.
Work in a small place like Fawley starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the extract fan cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Fawley run smoothly.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- The fan is isolated so it can’t start while we work.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Move anything stored near the system
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

What else we do in Fawley
Why act early in Fawley
A fan that sounds rough in Fawley 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. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.

Between visits
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Keep access to the fan clear
The area around the fan is left clean, with waste grease removed. Wherever the fan is, the area around it is cleaned down.
Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller and early action can save a repair.
Grease, kitchens and Fawley
Fawley lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. The FSA’s data shows about 4 pubs and bars registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Fawley. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in Fawley are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Fawley is Coldeast, about 4.2 miles north-east. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Fawley Infant School or anywhere near Fawley, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Fawley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Fawley is about 3 miles south-east of Hythe, in Hampshire. Every kind of commercial site in Fawley, we can take on extract fan cleaning. We can work out of hours so trading is not interrupted.

Common questions in Fawley
Can a school canteen extract in Fawley be done out of term time?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 3 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Fawley. Just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Fawley?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Fawley. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote and we’ll plan the visit around them.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Cleaning removes grease, but it cannot fix worn parts. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.
Will I get photos of the cleaned fan?
Every clean has a photo report, with anything we noticed. A full clean adds a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- A motor that has burnt out
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Axial fans
- Fan housings
- Centrifugal fans
- Discharge points
- In-line fans

What affects the quote in Fawley
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The number of sites or systems
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The scale of the work
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
