Advice
About our extract fan cleaning in Lower Froyle
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing, and that’s what we clean. We’re often asked to deal with a fan left out of previous cleans and thick grease on the impeller and casing, on centrifugal fans, discharge points and fan housings.
In a small place like Lower Froyle, 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.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Lower Froyle
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
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.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Lower Froyle: your questions answered
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Lower Froyle?
That is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can you get to a site in Lower Froyle?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Lower Froyle is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
A clean won’t mend wear. We repair and replace extract fans as well, with a fixed quote first.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
How long will it take to clean the fan?
A single accessible fan doesn’t take long, but hard-to-reach fans take more time. We plan it out of hours.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Why is my extract fan noisy?
Grease on the blades and housing is one of the usual causes, because it unbalances the fan. Worn bearings and motor problems are others, which our report will flag.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and a few photos plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Flag smoke lingering at the canopy
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Run the extract throughout cooking
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.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- A fan that won’t start
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The housing around the impeller catches grease flung off the blades. It’s scraped and degreased with the impeller.
