How we handle extract fan cleaning in South Gorley
The fan is cleaned as part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but a fan can also need attention on its own, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. A fan-only clean is recorded as exactly that. If you have rough running from the extract fan and fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan, we can put it right, from roof-mounted fans, axial fans and centrifugal fans onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Why act early in South Gorley
Vibration from an unbalanced impeller does not stay small. It can wear the bearings and lead to failure, which may leave the kitchen without extraction. Cleaning it early is far less disruptive. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Kitchen extracts in South Gorley
South Gorley is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Food hygiene inspections in South Gorley are the job of New Forest 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.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Hyde Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Questions from South Gorley
Do you cover smaller places like South Gorley?
Yes. South Gorley 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 South Gorley?
That is New Forest council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in South Gorley. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
What should I send you?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
Often it’s grease on the impeller. Uneven build-up on the blades throws the fan off balance, causing vibration and noise. Cleaning may sort it, but worn bearings or a failing motor need a repair.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in South Gorley and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Flag smoke lingering at the canopy
- Report rattles or humming early
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Leave a clear route to the fan
When the fan is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. A fan-only clean is recorded in the photo report.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Air that keeps moving carries vapour out rather than letting it settle, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
How the job changes from site to site
Roof-mounted fans
A roof fan sits in cooler air, so grease can settle heavily. We scrape and degrease the blades and casing.
Impellers and blades
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: cracks, bent blades or wear. Anything we see goes on the report.
How the visit works
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. On site, it takes an hour or two for most single fans. In a small place like South Gorley, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

What we are called out for in South Gorley
Grease builds up unevenly on the blades. The difference throws the impeller off balance and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of the Holy Ascension or anywhere around South Gorley, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
