Aftercare tips

Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Make sure the fan is included each time
  • Keep the grease filters clean and in place
  • File the fan’s report with your other records
  • Watch for grease marks around the outlet

A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If only the fan is cleaned, the photo report says so.

Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.

How we handle extract fan cleaning in Hatfield Peverel

Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll give you a fixed quote for extract fan cleaning in Hatfield Peverel, usually within one working day. Common call-outs are for a fan that has never been cleaned and a heavily greased fan housing, on in-line fans, centrifugal fans and axial fans.

In a smaller place like Hatfield Peverel, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Hatfield Peverel

The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:

  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • The condition of the system
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The scale of the work

No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Asking for a quote

You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:

  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

Leave it or put it right?

Grease on the fan is grease in the system. TR19® Grease covers the whole extract, fan included and many insurers require the full system to be cleaned to TR19. A quieter site near Hatfield Peverel still needs its system looked after.

Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Hatfield Peverel kitchens: local notes

Food Standards Agency data counts about 6 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hatfield Peverel. The fan at the end of each of those extracts collects grease that slows it and wears the motor. Hatfield Peverel is covered by Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Environmental health officers from Braintree council inspect food businesses in Hatfield Peverel. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Priory Hospital about 5.1 miles south-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Hatfield Peverel St Andrew's Junior School or anywhere near Hatfield Peverel, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A kitchen near Hatfield Peverel station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Hatfield Peverel

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Hatfield Peverel?

That is Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.

Do you work in villages like Hatfield Peverel?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What information do you need?

Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What is TR19?

A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.

Will I get pictures of the cleaned fan?

A photo report, including the fan’s condition and the next clean date. Keep it with your maintenance log.

Why has my extract fan got louder?

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

Will we have to shut during the visit?

Usually not. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.

Do you work out of hours?

Yes. Evenings, nights and weekends are normal working hours for us, so you don’t have to close during trading.

What we do, step by step

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Because the survey comes first, a visit to Hatfield Peverel can usually be finished without a second trip.

  1. We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
  2. Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
  3. The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
  4. We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
  5. It’s closed up, run and checked, and pictures go into your report.

Before we arrive

  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Get a fixed quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.

What the work involves, part by part

Impellers and blades

While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: cracks, bent blades or wear. We note any concerns.

Wall fans

Grease can mark the outside wall around the fan. The outlet is checked as well as the fan.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hatfield Peverel

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
