Extract Fan Cleaning in Four Elms

How the job changes from site to site

Fan housings and motors

Motors and their electrics are kept dry and treated with care, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease around the motor can make it run hotter, so the surrounding area is cleaned carefully.

Impellers and blades

The impeller is the spinning part that moves the air, and grease builds up on them unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.

Grease, kitchens and Four Elms

Four Elms is about 21 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. Four Elms sits within the area of Kent 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.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Four Elms Primary School or anywhere near Four Elms, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Chartwell is about 2 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
