Professional extractor fan cleaning - grease and grime removed from filters, fan, and housing. Proper airflow restored so your kitchen actually ventilates properly.
### Your Kitchen's Forgotten Workhorse
That extractor fan runs every time you cook. **All that grease, steam, and cooking smell goes through it** - and stays there if it's not cleaned. Eventually it stops extracting anything.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** If you have to open windows while cooking despite having an extractor, it's blocked. Time for a proper clean.

Frequently Asked Questions about Extractor fan cleaning in Exmouth
How often should extractor fans be cleaned?
Every 3-6 months for regular cooking. If you do a lot of frying or heavy cooking, more often. You'll notice when it stops working properly - that's definitely overdue.
Can I clean the extractor fan myself?
Filters yes - most people can manage that. But the fan itself, motor housing, and ducting need proper access and cleaning. That's where grease really builds up.
Why is my extractor fan so noisy?
Usually grease buildup making it work harder. Sometimes loose screws or worn bearings. A good clean often quietens things down - if not, it might need repair or replacement.
Is grease in extractor fans a fire risk?
Yes - built-up grease can ignite if it gets hot enough. Commercial kitchens clean extractors frequently for this reason. Home kitchens less risky but still worth keeping clean.
