Extract fan cleaning in Frogham, done properly
Any fan serving a kitchen in Frogham is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: we isolate it, open the housing, scrape the impeller and degrease the lot. Your report shows the impeller as we found it and as we left it. If you have a fan left out of previous cleans and a motor area thick with grease, we can help, from fan housings, discharge points and in-line fans onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Frogham, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Part by part
Impellers and blades
The blades of the impeller do the work, and grease builds up on them unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
Long cooking hours mean more grease reaches the fan. Under BESA guidance, heavy use means cleaning at least every 3 months, fan included.
Frogham questions
Is Frogham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you work in Frogham outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Frogham can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do you provide a report after cleaning the fan?
A photo report, including the fan’s condition and the next clean date. Keep it with your maintenance log.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
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.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
It has to be off and isolated before anyone touches it. We clean out of hours, in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so cooking isn’t affected.

What a clean won’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- A fan that is too small for the system (a design question)
- A fan that will not start
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Frogham
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What happens on the day
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. For a village or hamlet like Frogham, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Do not store items in front of the fan’s access point
We take away the grease and dirty water from the fan clean. Wherever the fan is, the area around it is cleaned down.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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, alongside our reports.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Frogham
There are about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across Frogham and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each kitchen extract among them ends at a fan, and grease on the impeller strains the motor. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Frogham. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In Frogham, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
For schools such as Hyde Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Breamore House, about 4 miles north, is one of the historic houses near Frogham; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of the Holy Ascension or elsewhere in Frogham, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What happens if it’s left?
Without a working extract fan, a kitchen can’t cook safely. Many fan problems start with grease, so cleaning the fan helps keep it working. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. A planned visit to Frogham is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
