Extract fan cleaning in Peper Harow, done properly
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan, and that is what we clean. The work covers fan housings, centrifugal fans and roof-mounted fans, and people most often call us about rough running from the extract fan and hot, greasy smells near the fan.
Work in a small place like Peper Harow starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, 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.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what extract fan cleaning won’t do:
- An impeller that’s bent or split
- Wiring faults to the fan
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Peper Harow
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. That makes it a natural place for grease to settle.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- A heavily greased fan housing
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Milford Hospital about 2.3 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Why deal with it now?
A fan that fails mid-service can stop a kitchen cooking. Grease is often where fan trouble begins, so keeping it clean is part of keeping it running. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. If the system at a site near Peper Harow fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we’ll talk you through it.

Peper Harow questions
Can the work in Peper Harow be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Peper Harow needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Is Peper Harow within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before we start.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not normally. We need the work area to ourselves while we’re on site, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
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 are fully insured.
What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Part by part
Fan housings and motors
Belt-driven fans have a drive belt and pulleys that can collect grease. We clean around them and note any wear for your records.
Inline duct fans
Some fans are built into the duct itself. We get to them through the duct or casing after isolating them.

How it works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. The timing of a visit to Peper Harow is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- 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.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
