Answers to common questions about extraction system design, installation, servicing and free site surveys from Advanced Extract Solutions.
What services does Advanced Extract Solutions provide?

We also provide system upgrades, repairs, planned maintenance and service contracts. LEV examination and testing can be arranged through competent specialist testing partners.
Which areas do you cover?
We provide extraction services across Sussex, Surrey, Kent, Essex and London. Contact us with your site location and requirements so we can discuss your project.
What does a free extraction site survey include?
We discuss your processes, review the extraction points and workplace layout, and assess any existing extraction equipment where relevant. The visit helps us understand your requirements and recommend the next steps. A free site survey is an initial assessment; it does not replace a formal LEV thorough examination and test.
Do you install both dust and fume extraction systems?
Yes. We design systems around the contaminants generated by your process and the required capture method, airflow, ductwork, fan and filtration arrangements. The equipment specification depends on the application.
Can you improve or extend an existing extraction system?
Yes. We can assess existing extraction and discuss options such as additional extraction points, ductwork modifications, fan replacement, filtration upgrades, control improvements, repairs or system replacement.
How much does an extraction installation cost?
The cost depends on the number of extraction points, contaminants, airflow requirements, equipment, ductwork routes and installation access. We assess the project before preparing a quotation, rather than offering a standard price for every workplace.
Can installation be planned around our production schedule?
We discuss access, working hours and operational requirements during project planning. Tell us about your production schedule so we can agree a practical installation approach.
What happens after installation?
We can commission the system and assess airflow at the relevant extraction points. Where required, formal LEV examination and testing can be arranged through competent specialist testing partners. We can also discuss ongoing maintenance.
Do you offer maintenance and service contracts?
Yes. We offer planned preventative maintenance and service contracts tailored to system usage and operating conditions. Visits can be scheduled weekly, fortnightly, monthly or bi-monthly, depending on the agreed requirements. Find out what’s included in our LEV servicing and maintenance contracts.
Who carries out LEV examination and testing?
We arrange formal LEV examination and testing through competent specialist testing partners. Contact us to discuss your system and the testing or reporting you require.
Can you supply extraction equipment without installation?
Yes. We can supply extraction fans, ductwork, filtration, extraction arms and associated components for customers managing their own installation. Contact us with your specification or requirements.
