- Wiring faults to the fan
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)

Extract fan cleaning in Weston Turville
Cleaning removes grease, not wear. Anything that looks worn or damaged goes on the report, and we also repair and replace extract fans. You get an honest view of the fan’s condition. Typical jobs include an extract fan with no cleaning record and a noisy fan that has got louder over time, on discharge points, in-line fans and fan housings.
In a smaller place like Weston Turville, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part
Impellers and blades
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: chips, distortion or wear. We note any concerns.
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 after isolating them.
What staff can safely do
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
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.
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The size of the system
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site rules, permits and inductions
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The postcode and the type of business
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
Leave it or put it right?
Without a working extract fan, a kitchen can’t cook safely. Grease is often where fan trouble begins, so keeping it clean is part of keeping it running. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. When a site near Weston Turville shuts unexpectedly, the people who rely on it notice at once.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.

What happens on the day
Each visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes an hour or two for most single fans. In a smaller place like Weston Turville, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- It’s closed up, run and checked, and photos go into your report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

What extract fan cleaning looks like in Weston Turville
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Weston Turville. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Fire safety in Weston Turville falls to Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Weston Turville. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.

Each blade collects a slightly different amount. The difference throws the impeller off balance and puts strain on the bearings. Left too long, grease turns into wear.
Look out for any of the following:
- A motor area thick with grease
- A heavily greased fan housing
- Grease stains around the discharge
- A fan that has never been cleaned
