About our extract fan cleaning in Newport
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it draws the air through the canopy and ductwork and pushes it outside. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan, and that is what we clean. The work covers fan housings, discharge points and centrifugal fans, and people most often call us about a motor area thick with grease and rough running from the extract fan.
In a town like Newport, most of the kitchen extracts we are asked about belong to restaurants, cafés, pubs, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Each has a canopy, filters, ductwork and a fan to keep clear of grease.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, 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.

What happens if it’s left?
Vibration from an unbalanced impeller does not stay small. It can wear the bearings and lead to failure and a kitchen cannot cook safely without extraction. A planned clean beats an emergency. The sooner the work is done, the simpler the job for a site in Newport.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

FAQs for Newport
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Newport?
That’s Isle of Wight council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Newport. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Can school kitchens in Newport be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 18 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Newport. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
What accreditations do you have?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes, we can clean just the fan. That helps when the fan needs attention before the next full clean, but it doesn’t replace a full TR19 clean.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. Anything that cannot be reached is recorded, so the record is accurate.
How long will it take to clean the fan?
Allow an hour or two for most single fans. Your quote will give an idea.
Will I get photos of the cleaned fan?
Photos, notes on condition and a recommended next date. Keep it with your maintenance log.
What else we do in Newport
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. 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 a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. For a site in a town like Newport, tell us your opening hours, where we can park and how we reach the roof or plant.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Related advice
What the work involves, part by part
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, which means grease and wear add up quickly. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
Wall fans
Smaller kitchens may extract through a fan on an outside wall. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned inside and out.
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Report rattles or humming early
- Do not store items in front of the fan’s access point
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
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.
Fewer grease particles reaching the fan means less build-up. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.
Extract fan cleaning in Newport: the local picture
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 20 pubs and bars and about 6 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Newport. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Newport 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. Kitchens in Newport get their food hygiene inspections from Isle of Wight council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Mary's Hospital (about 0.8 miles north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Carisbrooke Castle is about 1 mile south-west), access may need planning. School kitchens, at schools like Nine Acres Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
Newport is about 10 miles south-west of Gosport, in the Isle of Wight. Wherever you are in the PO30 postcode area, we can carry out extract fan cleaning at your premises.

Around Newport

What staff can safely do
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before booking.
