Extract fan cleaning in Whiteley Bank
If the extract fan in Whiteley Bank has become noisy, weak or greasy? Tell us about it when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and you will get a fixed price, normally within one working day. Typical jobs include grease stains around the discharge and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, across in-line fans, fan housings and roof-mounted fans.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

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 the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Whiteley Bank before we set off.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

What the work involves, part by part
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans sit at the top of the riser. We clean them where they can be safely reached, and anything we can’t reach is recorded.
Wall fans
Smaller kitchens may extract through a fan on an outside wall. We isolate it, then clean the blades and housing.
Questions from Whiteley Bank
Can school kitchens in Whiteley Bank be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Whiteley Bank. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Whiteley Bank?
Food hygiene inspections in Whiteley Bank are carried out by Isle of Wight council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we will book around them.
Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?
Yes. We record it as a fan-only clean, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The full system still needs its regular TR19 clean.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.

Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Do not turn the fan off mid-service
- Keep records of every fan clean
The area around the fan is left clean, with waste grease removed. On a roof or outside wall, we leave the surrounding area tidy.
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.
