Extract fan cleaning for sites in Worplesdon

Extract fan cleaning in Worplesdon

Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it draws the air through the canopy and ductwork and pushes it outside. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan and we clean it off. Typical jobs include an extract fan with no cleaning record and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, across discharge points, centrifugal fans and roof-mounted fans.

Work in a small place like Worplesdon 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.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

What happens if it’s left?

A fan that sounds rough in Worplesdon is often telling you the extract needs a clean. If the fan is coated, the duct before it normally is too, so it’s worth checking the whole system. In a place like Worplesdon, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

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.

Different parts, different methods

Fan housings and motors

Motors and their electrics are kept dry and treated with care, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease around the motor can make it run hotter, so we clean what we safely can.

Roof-mounted fans

Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface and we check the area around the outlet. Heavy staining is noted on the report.

How it works

At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. The timing of a visit to Worplesdon is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
  2. It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
  3. We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
  4. Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
  5. It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
  • Let us know about parking and loading

Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Worplesdon kitchens: local notes

There are about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Worplesdon, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. The fire and rescue service for Worplesdon is Surrey 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. Environmental health officers from Guildford council inspect food businesses in Worplesdon. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.

Where a hall near Church of St Mary the Virgin, or anywhere in Worplesdon, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Worplesdon Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Guildford Hospital about 2.3 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
