Extract fan cleaning in Redenham
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. The work covers axial fans, fan housings and roof-mounted fans, and people most often call us about fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan and a noisy fan that has got louder over time.
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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Extract fan cleaning in Redenham: the local picture
The fire and rescue service for Redenham is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Kitchens in Redenham get their food hygiene inspections from Test Valley council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Appleshaw St Peter's CofE Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Peter in the Wood or anywhere around Redenham, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Andover War Memorial Hospital about 3.8 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

The process
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Redenham and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
The area around the fan is left clean, with waste grease removed. Wherever the fan is, the area around it is cleaned down.
Make sure the fan is reachable. A fan that can be reached safely is a fan that gets cleaned, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.
Why deal with it now?
For a kitchen in Redenham, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. Grease on the fan means grease in the duct before it so a full TR19 clean may be due. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How we price extract fan cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The number of sites or systems
- The size of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Asking for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Any previous report or certificate
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Different parts, different methods
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.
Inline duct fans
Inline fans can be in tight spaces, so the method is planned in advance. Anything out of reach is recorded.
