Extract Fan Cleaning in Peacehaven
Extract fan cleaning in Peacehaven from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.

What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
Not every problem is solved by extract fan cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
- Damaged fan blades
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we handle extract fan cleaning in Peacehaven
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing, and that’s what we clean. Common call-outs are for a fan that no longer moves enough air and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, on in-line fans, centrifugal fans and axial fans.
Kitchens around a place like Peacehaven are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Other services in Peacehaven
Do you need extract fan cleaning in Peacehaven?
Grease condenses as the air cools, 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 normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- A motor area thick with grease
- Rough running from the extract fan
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- Grease stains around the discharge
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Peacehaven Community School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Extract fan cleaning around Peacehaven

Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Peacehaven is covered by East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service.

What happens on the day
We turn up 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 few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Peacehaven, so let us know how to reach it.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.

Advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
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. Regular cleans help it keep going.
Impellers and blades
The blades of the impeller do the work, and grease builds up on them unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.
Peacehaven questions
Is Peacehaven within the area you cover?
Yes, Peacehaven is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which fire service covers Peacehaven?
Fire safety enforcement in Peacehaven is handled by East Sussex 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.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes, where it makes sense. A coated fan often means the duct before it is coated too, but the choice is yours.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
