Do you need extract fan cleaning in Harbridge?
Each blade collects a slightly different amount. The difference throws the impeller off balance, wearing bearings and mounts. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Rough running from the extract fan
- A motor area thick with grease
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- Burning smells from the fan area
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of All Saints or anywhere around Harbridge, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
How it works
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits, and we clear up before we go. The timing of a visit to Harbridge is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- The fan is isolated so it cannot start while we work.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Getting a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Don’t store items in front of the fan’s access point
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
Keep the report with the maintenance log and fire risk assessment. It shows the fan’s condition at the time of the clean, which helps if anything changes later.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.

It’s New Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Harbridge. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day.

FAQs for Harbridge
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Harbridge?
Fire safety enforcement in Harbridge is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can the work in Harbridge be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Harbridge can fit around your hours. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you provide a report after cleaning the fan?
A photo report shows the fan before and after. Full system cleans come with a TR19 certificate as well.
What’s the cleaning interval for an extract fan?
It depends on how many hours the kitchen cooks, under BESA guidance. Heavy use means at least every 3 months, light use at least every 12, fan included.
Is Harbridge in your area?
Yes. We cover Harbridge and across Hampshire, within our South East and London area. To book, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Anything beyond cleaning is flagged, with what we found. We offer extract fan repair and replacement, and if it fails outright, our 24/7 emergency line is there.
Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?
Yes. We record it as a fan-only clean, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The full system still needs its regular TR19 clean.
Part by part
Fan housings and motors
Inside the casing, grease is thrown onto the walls. We clean it along with the blades.
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.
What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
