Extract Fan Cleaning in Lychpit

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Extract fan cleaning in Lychpit: the local picture

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 82 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 13 sandwich bars and takeaways in Lychpit and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. Lychpit sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. In Lychpit, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital (about 2.6 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (The Vyne is about 3 miles north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

Lychpit is about 2 miles east of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. Lychpit gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where necessary and a written report with pictures.

Why deal with it now?

A fan that sounds rough in Lychpit is often telling you the extract needs a clean. If the fan is coated, the duct before it normally is too, so it’s worth checking the whole system. Planning a trip to Lychpit ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
