About our extract fan cleaning in Trotton

In Trotton, as everywhere we work, the fan follows a set routine: we isolate it, open the housing, scrape the impeller and degrease the lot. The result is photographed for your records. If you have a fan that no longer moves enough air and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, we can help, from discharge points, in-line fans and centrifugal fans onwards.

Work in a small place like Trotton 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.

The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Trotton kitchens: local notes

It’s Chichester council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Trotton. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. About 46 miles out from central London, Trotton is part of the South East area we work across. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included.

Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Cowdray House is about 3.2 miles east), access may need planning. For schools such as Stedham Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Trotton is about 6 miles east of Petersfield, in Hampshire. Anywhere in GU31, we can take on extract fan cleaning. We cover 683 places across Hampshire, from busy centres to quieter spots. We also work in Portsmouth, around 18 miles away.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
  • Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
  • Listen for new noises or vibration from the fan
  • Flag smoke lingering at the canopy

Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. We also repair and replace extract fans, so you have one point of contact.

Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.

How we price extract fan cleaning

The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:

  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • The size of the system

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Helping us quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:

  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • The postcode and the type of business

Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

What we do, step by step

Your staff do not 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. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Trotton.

  1. First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
  2. Once isolated, we open the fan up.
  3. Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
  4. We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
  5. The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand

Advice

Why act early in Trotton

Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. If the system at a site near Trotton fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before we start.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Trotton

Can school kitchens in Trotton be cleaned in the holidays?

Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Trotton. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.

Can you get to a site in Trotton?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Who is the responsible person?

That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. We always survey first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.

How do you protect the area?

Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

What if the fan needs more than a clean?

We also repair and replace extract fans. If we find wear or damage, we’ll explain it and send you a fixed quote.

How much notice should we give?

It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.

What we are called out for in Trotton

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. So grease often settles heavily there.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Grease around the motor and its mounts
  • Less air being pulled from the kitchen
  • A noisy fan that has got louder over time
  • A heavily greased fan housing

Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St George's Church, or anywhere in Trotton, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

What your quote should include

  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • How VAT is shown on the quote
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
