Extract Fan Cleaning in Monxton
We cover Monxton for extract fan cleaning. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports on every job.

- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
How we handle extract fan cleaning in Monxton
Kitchen extract fans come in different forms: fans on the roof, fans built into the duct run, and fans on an outside wall. The way in depends on the type and the survey shows us how to reach it. If you have hot, greasy smells near the fan and fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan, we can put it right, from fan housings, centrifugal fans and axial fans onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Monxton, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Monxton
The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and on a roof or outside wall the fan can be in some of the coolest air in the system. So grease often settles heavily there.
Clients typically contact us when they notice one of these:
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- Rough running from the extract fan
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- A fan left out of previous cleans
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Andover War Memorial Hospital is the nearest hospital to Monxton, about 2.8 miles north-east.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Monxton
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
What affects the quote in Monxton
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The condition we find in the survey
- The scale of the work
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
How it works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Monxton.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

How the job changes from site to site
Fan housings and motors
Inside the casing, grease is thrown onto the walls. We clean it along with the blades.
Impellers and blades
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: chips, distortion or wear. We note any concerns.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
- Keep records of every fan clean
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
- Don’t store items in front of the fan’s access point
Keep the report with the maintenance log and fire risk assessment. It shows the fan’s condition at the time of the clean, which helps if anything changes later.
Don’t run the kitchen with the extract off. Air that keeps moving carries vapour out rather than letting it settle, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Monxton
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Monxton?
That’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Do you cover smaller places like Monxton?
Yes, Monxton is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
It’s cleaned with the whole extract, from every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours of cooking a day to every 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Readings may show it needs cleaning more often.

TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

Every clean has a photo report, along with notes on the fan’s condition. A full clean adds a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Kitchen extracts in Monxton
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across Monxton and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on a fan that gathers grease as it runs. Monxton is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Kitchens in Monxton get their food hygiene inspections from Test Valley council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Amport Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Monxton, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Monxton, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
