Extract fan cleaning across Fyfield

Extract fan cleaning in Fyfield, done properly

Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing and we clean it off. The work covers fan housings, axial fans and discharge points, and common reasons people get in touch are grease stains around the discharge and thick grease on the impeller and casing.

In a small place like Fyfield, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

When something else is needed

Not every problem is solved by extract fan cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:

  • A fan that won’t start
  • A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
  • Grease in the canopy and ductwork

If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work

  • Discharge points
  • Fan housings
  • Roof-mounted fans
  • Centrifugal fans
  • In-line fans
  • Axial fans

How the job changes from site to site

Impellers and blades

Grease on the leading edges of the blades cuts the fan’s efficiency. Scraping and degreasing them restores their shape, so the fan can run as intended.

Kitchens with long cooking hours

When a busy kitchen’s fan fails, cooking stops. A clean fan is less likely to strain, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Fyfield

Do you work overnight in Fyfield?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Fyfield needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Which environmental health team covers Fyfield?

Kitchens in Fyfield are inspected by Test Valley council’s environmental health officers. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?

Yes, if the fan needs it. A coated fan often means the duct before it is coated too, but the choice is yours.

What does extract fan cleaning cost?

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.

What’s TR19?

BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.

What makes a kitchen extract fan vibrate?

An unbalanced impeller, usually from uneven grease, is a common cause. We clean the fan and tell you if anything else, like worn bearings, is to blame.

How long does extract fan cleaning take?

That depends on the fan’s size, its position and how much grease there is. Typically it takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach.

Grease, kitchens and Fyfield

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Fyfield. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Food hygiene inspections in Fyfield are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Fyfield is Andover War Memorial Hospital, about 3.7 miles east. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Fyfield, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Fyfield

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

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 send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

How it works

The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits, and we clear up before we go. For a village or hamlet like Fyfield, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
  2. The fan is isolated so it cannot start while we work.
  3. Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
  4. We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
  5. It’s closed up, run and checked, and photos go into your report.

How to prepare

  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Tell us where we can park and unload

Ask for 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, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

How we price extract fan cleaning

Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The number of sites or systems
  • The condition of the system
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • Any permits to work or inductions

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Asking for a quote

We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:

  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
