Extract fan cleaning in Wherwell Wood, done properly
Think of the fan as the system’s heart and the grease as a clot. A greasy fan works harder and moves less air. We clean it, run it and note anything that needs a closer look, before signing it off. If you have a noisy fan that has got louder over time and an extract fan with no cleaning record, we can put it right, from axial fans, discharge points and fan housings onwards.
Work in a small place like Wherwell Wood starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
What the work involves, part by part
Fan housings and motors
The housing around the impeller catches grease flung off the blades. It’s scraped and degreased with the impeller.
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans also discharge grease onto the roof around them, so the outlet area is checked too. We note any grease around the fan.
When it’s something else
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
- Damaged fan blades
- Wiring faults to the fan
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

What affects the quote in Wherwell Wood
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The scale of the work
- The times the site is available
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Site rules, permits and inductions
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- A few general shots of the system
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Common problems we fix in Wherwell Wood
A greasy fan in Wherwell Wood is fuel at the end of the duct. A fire in the duct can reach the fan and the grease around it and an overworked motor runs hotter.
What we are most often called out for:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
- A fan left out of previous cleans
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Wherwell Primary School or anywhere near Wherwell Wood, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
What your quote should include
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- When the next visit should be, and why
What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes an hour or two for most single fans, and we clear up before we go. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Wherwell Wood.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- The fan is isolated so it cannot start while we work.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Wherwell Wood
Can you get to a site in Wherwell Wood?
Yes, Wherwell Wood is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you come to Wherwell Wood after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Wherwell Wood can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
Every clean has a photo report, with anything we noticed. A full clean adds a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
It has to be off and isolated, for safety. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking is not affected.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
