Extract fan cleaning near Madley Park

How we handle extract fan cleaning in Madley Park

The fan is cleaned as part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, especially when it has started to vibrate or sound rough. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. Common call-outs are for less air being pulled from the kitchen and grease escaping from the fan outlet, on in-line fans, roof-mounted fans and discharge points.

For a smaller kitchen near Madley Park, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.

Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Aftercare tips

To keep the system working properly between visits:

  • Keep records of every fan clean
  • Watch for grease marks around the outlet
  • Tell us if the extract feels weaker
  • Keep the grease filters clean and in place

Once it’s clean, the fan is closed up and run to check it’s working smoothly. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.

A change in how the fan sounds is worth noting. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller, and catching it early keeps it a cleaning job.

How it works

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Visits to a place like Madley Park are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.

  1. We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
  2. Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
  3. We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
  4. Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
  5. The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

How we price extract fan cleaning

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • What state the system is in
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • The number of sites or systems

A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.

What to send for a quote

To help us quote quickly, send us:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.

Extract fan cleaning around Madley Park

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 55 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 20 takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Madley Park. Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on a fan that gathers grease as it runs. Kitchens in Madley Park get their food hygiene inspections from West Oxfordshire council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Madley Park. 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.

Historic houses near Madley Park, such as Minster Lovell Hall about 2.9 miles west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. School kitchens, at schools like Madley Brook Community Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of Holy Trinity or elsewhere in Madley Park, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Madley Park

Can you get to a site in Madley Park?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Madley Park is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

Do you work at weekends in Madley Park?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Madley Park needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.

Why has my extract fan got louder?

Often it’s grease on the impeller. Grease collects unevenly and unbalances the impeller, causing vibration and noise. Cleaning may sort it, but worn bearings or a failing motor need a repair.

Is the fan isolated during cleaning?

It has to be off and isolated before anyone touches it. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking isn’t affected.

Do we lose a day’s trading?

Not normally. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.

Do you provide a report after cleaning the fan?

You get a photo report with before and after photos of the fan. Full system cleans come with a TR19 certificate as well.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

How the job changes from site to site

Inline duct fans

Space around an inline fan can be tight, so the method is planned in advance. If it can’t be reached fully, the report says so.

Wall fans

Grease can mark the outside wall around the fan. We clean the fan and check the outlet.

Why it’s worth doing now in Madley Park

A fan that fails mid-service can stop a kitchen cooking. Grease is often where fan trouble begins, so keeping it clean is part of keeping it running. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

What a clean won’t put right
