Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Do not turn the fan off mid-service
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
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.
What we do, step by step
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. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. For a village or hamlet like The Hangers, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s 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.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Clear loose items from the work area
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Grease, kitchens and The Hangers
Food Standards Agency records include about 4 pubs, bars and clubs in The Hangers and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. It’s Winchester City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in The Hangers. 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. The Hangers sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Bishops Waltham Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
The Hangers is about 6 miles north-east of Hedge End, in Hampshire. The Hangers gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where necessary and a written report with photos. The Hangers is one of 683 towns, villages and districts in Hampshire we cover for commercial clients. For sites nearby, see our Southampton page, about 10 miles away.

Nearby you’ll also find Bishop's Waltham Museum (1.6 miles south-west). For a walk, there’s Beacon Hill and Bishops Waltham Branch LNR.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Why it’s worth doing now in The Hangers
For a kitchen in The Hangers, 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. If the system at a site near The Hangers fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Common questions in The Hangers
Who is the fire and rescue service for The Hangers?
The Hangers is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you work in villages like The Hangers?
Yes, The Hangers is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Which accreditations do you hold?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
With the whole system, at intervals set by BESA guidance: every 3, 6 or 12 months. Some fans need attention sooner.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
What does extract fan cleaning cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before any work starts.
What we’re called out for in The Hangers
The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, 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.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- Weak extraction at the canopy
Whether the kitchen is in The Hangers itself or nearby, a TR19® clean covers the whole system, canopy to discharge.
What to look for in a quote
- How VAT is shown on the quote

- The condition of the system
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.
What we need to know
We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
