Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hatton
Grease on a fan is not spread evenly. Uneven build-up unbalances the impeller, leading to vibration, noise and strain on the motor and bearings. Cleaning the impeller and housing puts that right. If you have vibration from an unbalanced impeller and a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease, we can put it right, from fan housings, centrifugal fans and axial fans onwards.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. In Hatton, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Extract fan cleaning in Hatton: the local picture
The Food Standards Agency lists about 13 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 19 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses as registered food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hatton. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Fire safety in Hatton falls to London Fire Brigade. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Food hygiene inspections in Hatton are the job of Hounslow council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Osterley House is about 3.4 miles north-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Church and community hall kitchens, near The Parish Church of the Good Shepherd or anywhere around Hatton, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Keep access to the fan clear
File the photo report with your other extract records. It shows the fan’s condition at the time of the clean, which helps if anything changes later.
Don’t run the kitchen with the extract off. Air that keeps moving carries vapour out rather than letting it settle, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
What happens if it’s left?
Grease on the impeller makes the fan less efficient. Less air is pulled from the kitchen, so heat and smoke linger, while the motor runs under more strain. London buildings are shared, so a fire or failure in one system can reach the neighbours above and beside you.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Hatton?
Poor filters mean a greasier fan. Missing, damaged or badly fitted filters let grease travel the whole system, so the fan takes far more than it should.
What we are most often called out for:
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- Grease stains around the discharge
- Rough running from the extract fan
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Cranford Primary School or anywhere near Hatton, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Hatton
Which fire service covers Hatton?
London Fire Brigade is the fire and rescue service for Hatton. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Hatton in the summer holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 13 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Hatton, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Who is the responsible person?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
Build-up on the impeller is a frequent reason, since uneven grease makes it run out of balance. It can also be wear in the bearings or motor, which our report will flag.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Anything beyond cleaning is flagged, with what we found. We can repair or replace it, and there’s a 24/7 emergency callout for breakdowns.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
It takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Hatton
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
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 the report can go to both.
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
- How big the system is
- How easy every part is to reach
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The postcode and the type of business
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will usually have a quote within one working day.
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes an hour or two for most single fans. If your building in Hatton has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
