About our extract fan cleaning in Nether Worton
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 we plan that during the survey. Typical jobs include a motor area thick with grease and a fan shaking on its mounts, on axial fans, discharge points and fan housings.
In a small place like Nether Worton, 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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
You get before and after pictures of the impeller and housing. It notes what was done and anything that couldn’t be reached, along with the recommended next clean date.
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.
Leave it or put it right?
A greasy fan has to work harder to move the same air. Less air is pulled from the kitchen, so heat and smoke linger, while the motor runs under more strain. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Nether Worton is calmer for everyone.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Nether Worton
By the time air reaches the fan, it has passed the canopy, filters and duct. The grease that’s left lands on the blades and the casing where the spinning blades spread it around.
What we’re most often called out for:
- A heavily greased fan housing
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- Grease stains around the discharge
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of the Holy Trinity, or anywhere in Nether Worton, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Common questions in Nether Worton
Which fire service covers Nether Worton?
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Nether Worton. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you work overnight in Nether Worton?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Nether Worton can fit around your hours. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Bigger sites can be done in stages so parts stay in use.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
Fan repair and replacement is part of what we do. If we find wear or damage, we’ll explain it and send you a fixed quote.
What makes a kitchen extract fan vibrate?
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.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
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 send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
