How we handle extract fan cleaning in Haine
We have been trading since 2009. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and full insurance. Typical jobs include less air being pulled from the kitchen and hot, greasy smells near the fan, across axial fans, fan housings and roof-mounted fans.
Somewhere as small as Haine, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Do not store items in front of the fan’s access point
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
Keep the report with the maintenance log and fire risk assessment. It gives a dated record of the fan’s condition, which helps if anything changes later.
Make sure the fan is reachable. Clear access means it’s never left out of a clean, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.
Common questions in Haine
Do you work in villages like Haine?
Yes. Haine is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which council inspects kitchens in Haine?
In Haine, it’s Thanet council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
What is TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
Often it’s grease on the impeller. Grease collects unevenly and unbalances the impeller, causing vibration and noise. Cleaning may sort it, but worn bearings or a failing motor need a repair.
Is it safe to clean the fan while the kitchen is open?
We always isolate the fan first, so it cannot run during the clean. With the extract off, the kitchen can’t cook, so we work out of hours.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
How we price extract fan cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- What state the system is in
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

What the work involves, part by part
Wall fans
A wall fan pushes the air straight outside. We isolate it, then clean the blades and housing.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, which means grease and wear add up quickly. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes an hour or two for most single fans. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Haine knowing what to expect.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What else we do in Haine
Kitchen extracts in Haine
Haine lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. There are about 59 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 27 sandwich bars and takeaways across Haine 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. It’s Thanet council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Haine. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Dame Janet Primary Academy, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Haine (Quex Park is about 3 miles west), fitting access panels needs care.

When to call us in Haine
By the time air reaches the fan, it has passed the canopy, filters and duct. Whatever grease is still in it settles on the impeller and inside the housing where the spinning blades spread it around.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- Rough running from the extract fan
- A heavily greased fan housing
- A smell of hot grease from the extract

What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
