How the job changes from site to site
Wall fans
Smaller kitchens may extract through a fan on an outside wall. We isolate it, then clean the blades and housing.
Fan housings and motors
The housing around the impeller catches grease flung off the blades. We clean it along with the blades.
Extract fan cleaning in Holt Pound, done properly
Any fan serving a kitchen in Holt Pound is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: isolated first, then opened, scraped and degreased. Your report shows the impeller as we found it and as we left it. The work covers axial fans, in-line fans and roof-mounted fans, and common reasons people get in touch are burning smells from the fan area and a noisy fan that has got louder over time.
In a small place like Holt Pound, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Leave it or put it right?
Without a working extract fan, a kitchen cannot cook safely. Many fan problems start with grease, so cleaning the fan helps keep it working. We also offer a 24/7 emergency callout if the worst happens. A fault that closes a site in a village like Holt Pound affects everyone who depends on it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

What else we do in Holt Pound
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Listen for new noises or vibration from the fan
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Don’t store items in front of the fan’s access point
Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller and early action can save a repair.
How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes an hour or two for most single fans. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Holt Pound.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- A fan that will not start
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

Grease, kitchens and Holt Pound
Food Standards Agency records include about 4 bars, pubs and nightclubs within about 1.5 miles of central Holt Pound. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. It’s East Hampshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Holt Pound. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Holt Pound sits within the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Historic houses near Holt Pound, such as Farnham Castle about 2.7 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Rowledge Church of England Controlled Primary School or anywhere near Holt Pound, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Chase Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Holt Pound, about 5.6 miles south.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
