Extraction is the most neglected appliance in the kitchen. A mesh filter that has never been degreased can hold a surprising amount of liquid fat directly above an open flame, and the loss of airflow pushes cooking moisture into the room — which is where the damp, greasy film on nearby wall tiles and ceilings comes from. Bookings around Heaton Chapel station and the former Fairey Aviation works site follow the same standard, and neighbouring Heaton Moor and Heaton Norris are covered on the same run.
We take the filters out and soak them, clean the canopy inside and out, degrease the impeller and fan housing where the design allows access, clear the light lenses, and check whether the unit is ducted or recirculating. Recirculating carbon cartridges are consumables: washing them does nothing, so we fit new ones and show you the old.
