Extract fan cleaning in Jarvis Brook
Any fan serving a kitchen in Jarvis Brook is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: we isolate it, open the housing, scrape the impeller and degrease the lot. Your report shows the impeller as we found it and as we left it. The work covers fan housings, discharge points and centrifugal fans, and common reasons people get in touch are fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan and grease around the motor and its mounts.
Somewhere as small as Jarvis Brook, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Jarvis Brook?
The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and a fan out on a roof or wall often sits where the air is coolest. So grease often settles heavily there.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Michael & All Angels or elsewhere in Jarvis Brook, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Jarvis Brook questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Jarvis Brook?
The local authority for Jarvis Brook is Wealden council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Do you work in villages like Jarvis Brook?
Yes, Jarvis Brook is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
It depends on the building. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?
Yes. The report will make clear that only the fan was cleaned, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The full system still needs its regular TR19 clean.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
Before and after photos go into a report, with anything we noticed. For a full TR19 clean, you also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Jarvis Brook
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 to a regular schedule.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Jarvis Brook
The Food Standards Agency lists about 9 pubs and bars as registered food businesses across Jarvis Brook and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Food hygiene inspections in Jarvis Brook are the job of Wealden council’s environmental health team. 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. Fire safety in Jarvis Brook falls to East Sussex 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.
A kitchen near Crowborough station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Jarvis Brook Primary School or anywhere near Jarvis Brook, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Listen for new noises or vibration from the fan
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
The photo report shows the fan before and after cleaning. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
