Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Winsor
A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, leading to vibration, noise and strain on the motor and bearings. Cleaning the impeller and housing puts that right. Common call-outs are for weak extraction at the canopy and a fan shaking on its mounts, across discharge points, roof-mounted fans and fan housings.
Somewhere as small as Winsor, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What else we do in Winsor
Winsor kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 7 bars, pubs and nightclubs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Winsor. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in Winsor are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. The fire and rescue service for Winsor is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Winsor, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. For schools such as Copythorne CofE Infant School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits, and we clear up before we go. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Winsor.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Before we arrive
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

What your team can do, and what needs us
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. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Part by part
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans also discharge grease onto the roof around them and we check the area around the outlet. We note any grease around the fan.
Wall fans
The wall around a wall fan can be stained with grease. The outlet is checked as well as the fan.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Wiring faults to the fan
- Damaged fan blades
- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Fan housings
- Axial fans

Questions from Winsor
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Winsor?
In Winsor, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can school kitchens in Winsor be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 3 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Winsor, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.
Can you clean the fan on its own?
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’s TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
Why is my extract fan noisy?
Often it’s grease on the impeller. Uneven build-up on the blades throws the fan off balance, causing vibration and noise. If cleaning doesn’t, the bearings or motor may need attention.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
Allow an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Winsor
Fans that are hard to reach are often the ones that get missed. If it wasn’t included in past cleans, it may hold years of grease, and the report will show it.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Tatchbury Mount Hospital (about 1 mile east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
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.
