How we handle extract fan cleaning in Perry
A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Uneven build-up unbalances the impeller, leading to vibration, noise and strain on the motor and bearings. Cleaning the impeller and housing puts that right. If you are dealing with rough running from the extract fan and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Perry, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

For landlords and multi-site operators
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
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.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Grease settles faster when the air stops moving, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.

What else we do in Perry
What the work involves, part by part
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans also discharge grease onto the roof around them, so the outlet area is checked too. We note any grease around the fan.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, so grease and wear build up together. Regular cleans help it keep going.
How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Perry before we set off.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Extract fan cleaning around Perry
Food hygiene inspections in Perry are the job of Dover council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Kent Fire and Rescue Service covers Perry. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Elmstone Church, or anywhere in Perry, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Goodnestone Park is about 3.1 miles south), access may need planning. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Martins Hospital (about 5.6 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
Perry is about 7 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. From the centre of Perry to the outskirts, extract fan cleaning is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from small sites to large estates. Perry is one of 922 towns, villages and districts in Kent we cover for extract fan cleaning. You can also see our page for Maidstone, about 31 miles away.

What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Leave it or put it right?
For a kitchen in Perry, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. If the fan is coated, the duct before it usually is too, so it’s worth checking the whole system. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

Questions from Perry
Do you work in villages like Perry?
Yes. Perry is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which environmental health team covers Perry?
Kitchens in Perry are inspected by Dover council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, a full TR19 clean includes the fan. Anything that can’t be reached is recorded, so the record is accurate.
Who is the responsible person?
It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few photos and any previous report.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
A photo report shows the fan before and after. If it’s part of a full TR19 clean, a TR19 certificate is issued too.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not typically. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.
