Heston extract fan cleaning

Heston kitchens: local notes

Look up Heston on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 275 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 124 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Heston. Each kitchen extract among them ends at a fan, and grease on the impeller strains the motor. It’s Hounslow council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Heston. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Heston sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Leonard's Church or elsewhere in Heston, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. For schools such as Westbrook Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
