About our extract fan cleaning in Lower Green
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and you’ll get a fixed price, typically within one working day. Common call-outs are for fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan and an extract fan that vibrates or rattles, on roof-mounted fans, fan housings and discharge points.
Somewhere as small as Lower Green, 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.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Leave it or put it right?
A fan that sounds rough in Lower Green is often telling you the extract needs a clean. If the fan is coated, the duct before it usually is too so a full TR19 clean may be due. A planned visit to Lower Green is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.

Lower Green: your questions answered
Can you come to Lower Green after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Lower Green needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Will you come out to Lower Green?
Yes, Lower Green is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What accreditations do you have?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
We always isolate the fan first, so it cannot run during the clean. That means the extract is off, so we clean while the kitchen is closed.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not typically. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
How long will it take to clean the fan?
That depends on the fan’s size, its position and how much grease there is. Typically it takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits.
Do you need extract fan cleaning in Lower Green?
Poor filters mean a greasier fan. When filters don’t seal, grease goes straight through to the fan, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Lower Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

What the work involves, part by part
Roof-mounted fans
On a roof, the air is cooler and grease drops out faster. We scrape and degrease the blades and casing.
Impellers and blades
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: chips, distortion or wear. We note any concerns.
Lower Green kitchens: local notes
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 22 bars, pubs and nightclubs across Lower Green and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. It’s Elmbridge council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Lower Green. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Lower Green falls to 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.
Commuter trade near Esher station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; No. 2 New Zealand General Hospital is the nearest hospital to Lower Green, about 2.6 miles west.

Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Report rattles or humming early
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. We also repair and replace extract fans, so you have one point of contact.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. A fan cleaned with the rest of the system on time rarely gets badly coated, in line with BESA guidance.
How the visit works
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Lower Green and turn up when the site is quiet.
- 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.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
