Extract fan cleaning in Wolverton

Every TR19® Grease clean includes the extract fan, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. A fan-only clean is recorded as exactly that. If you have a fan shaking on its mounts and fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan, we can help, from discharge points, roof-mounted fans and in-line fans onwards.

In a small place like Wolverton, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Extract fan cleaning around Wolverton

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Wolverton. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council inspect food businesses in Wolverton. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.

Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Catherine or anywhere around Wolverton, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning

There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:

  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • The times the site is available
  • What state the system is in

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

For extract fan cleaning in Wolverton, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.

Part by part

Kitchens with long cooking hours

Long cooking hours mean more grease reaches the fan. BESA guidance sets at least 3-monthly cleaning for that level of use, fan included.

Fan housings and motors

Inside the casing, grease is thrown onto the walls. It’s scraped and degreased with the impeller.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

What happens if it’s left?

A greasy fan has to work harder to move the same air. Airflow at the canopy drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier and the motor works harder. A planned visit to Wolverton is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

How the visit works

Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Wolverton run smoothly.

  1. First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
  2. Once isolated, we open the fan up.
  3. The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
  4. We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
  5. We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Clear the space around the work

Get a fixed quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Questions from Wolverton

Do you work in villages like Wolverton?

Yes. Wolverton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Can the work in Wolverton be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.

Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?

Yes, it should be. A TR19 Grease clean covers everything from canopy to discharge, and the fan sits right in that path, so it’s cleaned too.

What does TR19 mean?

BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.

Which accreditations do you hold?

We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

The law calls them the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
