Extract fan cleaning in Wembley Park

Grease on a fan is not spread evenly. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, which brings vibration, noise and extra wear on the bearings and motor. Cleaning the impeller and housing puts that right. We’re often asked to deal with a fan shaking on its mounts and a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease, on discharge points, fan housings and centrifugal fans.

In London, few kitchens can spare a day to close, so work in Wembley Park is normally booked for the night or the early hours. Parking, loading and access to the roof are agreed with the building before the night of the clean.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.

Honest limits

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • A motor that has burnt out
  • An impeller that is bent or split
  • Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Centrifugal fans
  • Axial fans
  • Discharge points
  • In-line fans
  • Fan housings
  • Roof-mounted fans

The process

There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Most London sites can’t stop for the day, so work in Wembley Park is typically done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.

  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. Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
  5. We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
  • Tell us where we can park and unload

Kitchen extracts in Wembley Park

According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 29 pubs, bars and clubs and about 8 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Wembley Park. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading isn’t affected. Environmental health officers from Brent council inspect food businesses in Wembley Park. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.

Different parts, different methods

Inline duct fans

Inline fans sit within the duct run, often above a ceiling. They’re reached through access panels or by opening the casing, once they’re isolated.

Impellers and blades

The impeller is the spinning part that moves the air, and it collects grease unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.

When to call us in Wembley Park

The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and a fan out on a roof or wall often sits where the air is coolest. So grease often settles heavily there.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A fan shaking on its mounts
  • Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
  • Hot, greasy smells near the fan
  • A fan coated in grease inside its housing

School kitchens, at schools like Michaela Community School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Questions to ask before booking

  • If they look at the system before pricing
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Whether the figure could change on the day
  • What paperwork you get at the end

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Between visits

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Keep the grease filters clean and in place
  • Tell us if the extract feels weaker
  • Do not turn the fan off mid-service
  • Do not store items in front of the fan’s access point

Once it’s clean, the fan is closed up and run to check it’s working smoothly. Anything we notice, like noise, vibration or a worn part, goes on the report, so you can plan any repair.

Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller, and catching it early keeps it a cleaning job.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Wembley Park

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Wembley Park?

Fire safety enforcement in Wembley Park is handled by London Fire Brigade. 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.

Is parking a problem for work in Wembley Park?

Tell us where a van can stop near your site in Wembley Park, and about any building rules on loading. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.

Who is the responsible person?

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.

How much notice should we give?

The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

Do we need to close while you work?

Not usually. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.

Why is my extract fan noisy?

Grease on the blades and housing is one of the usual causes, because it unbalances the fan. Worn bearings and motor problems are others, which our report will flag.

What affects the quote in Wembley Park

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:

  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids

Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

What we need to know

To speed up the quote, send us:

  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
