How we handle extract fan cleaning in New Forest
Cleaning removes grease, not wear. Anything that looks worn or damaged goes on the report, and we also repair and replace extract fans. You get an honest view of the fan’s condition. The work covers centrifugal fans, in-line fans and axial fans, and the jobs we see most are grease stains around the discharge and a fan shaking on its mounts.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes an hour or two for most single fans. Somewhere as small as New Forest, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
- It’s closed up, run and checked, and photos go into your report.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Questions from New Forest
Do you work overnight in New Forest?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in New Forest can fit around your hours. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in New Forest?
New Forest is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you will get one fixed quote.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Cleaning removes grease, but it cannot fix worn parts. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
Before and after pictures go into a report, along with notes on the fan’s condition. A full clean adds a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes, the fan is part of a full TR19® Grease clean. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned along with the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts and discharge.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
Keep the report with the maintenance log and fire risk assessment. It gives a dated record of the fan’s condition, which helps if anything changes later.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.
Do you need extract fan cleaning in New Forest?
Grease on a fan is a fire risk, in New Forest as anywhere. A fire in the duct can reach the fan and the grease around it, and a hot, struggling motor doesn’t help.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- A heavily greased fan housing
A TR19® clean in New Forest does not stop at the filters: the plenum, ductwork, fan and discharge are cleaned too.

New Forest is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
