What happens if it’s left?
For a kitchen in Furzedown, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. Grease on the fan means grease in the duct before it so a full TR19 clean may be due. Choosing the date yourself beats having a fault choose it for you.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.

Extract fan cleaning in Furzedown
Every TR19® Grease clean includes the extract fan, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, especially when it has started to vibrate or sound rough. A fan-only clean is recorded as exactly that. If you are dealing with a noisy fan that has got louder over time and less air being pulled from the kitchen, we can put it right, from axial fans, centrifugal fans and fan housings onwards.
In London, few kitchens can spare a day to close, so work in Furzedown is normally booked for the night or the early hours. Before the clean, we agree loading, parking and roof access with whoever manages the building.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Furzedown?
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. Missing, damaged or badly fitted filters let grease travel the whole system, so the fan takes far more than it should.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- Rough running from the extract fan
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Paul's Church or elsewhere in Furzedown, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How they set the interval to the next visit
Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
We take away the grease and dirty water from the fan clean. On a roof or outside wall, we leave the surrounding area tidy.
Make sure the fan is reachable. A fan that can be reached safely is a fan that gets cleaned, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.
Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by extract fan cleaning, and we’ll tell you before we start. It doesn’t solve:
- A motor that has burnt out
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Security desks and permits-to-work are routine in London, so let us know what your building in Furzedown needs from us.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Find the previous report, if there is one

For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Part by part
Kitchens with long cooking hours
Long cooking hours mean more grease reaches the fan. BESA guidance sets at least 3-monthly cleaning for that level of use, fan included.
Inline duct fans
An inline fan can be easy to forget because it’s out of sight. We find it during the survey and include it in the clean.

Kitchen extracts in Furzedown
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 48 pubs and bars and about 7 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Furzedown. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Night work suits London kitchens, and roads and loading bays tend to be quieter too. Furzedown sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
School kitchens, at schools like Graveney School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. Commuter trade near Tooting station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.

Furzedown: your questions answered
Which environmental health team covers Furzedown?
Kitchens in Furzedown are inspected by Merton council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Furzedown during the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 33 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Furzedown. You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Can you set up regular visits?
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.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
It depends on the building. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Fan repair and replacement is part of what we do. If we find wear or damage, we will explain it and send you a fixed quote.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes, a fan can be cleaned on its own. That helps when the fan needs attention before the next full clean, but it does not replace a full TR19 clean.
Where does the waste go?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
