- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A dead fan motor
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
What the work involves, part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Noise from an outside fan can carry beyond the kitchen. It’s often down to loose mounts or worn bearings.
Direct-drive fans
An impeller coated in grease vibrates straight into the motor bearings. Cleaning it can cure the noise, if the bearings haven’t been damaged.

What happens if it’s left?
Some kitchens run a noisy fan on a lower speed to cut the noise. That reduces extraction without fixing anything, and the fault carries on developing. A proper diagnosis in Abbots Worthy gets to the real cause. A fault that closes a site in a village like Abbots Worthy affects everyone who depends on it.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

How the visit works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. 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 work takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Abbots Worthy.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.

- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Related advice
Abbots Worthy: your questions answered
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Abbots Worthy?
The local authority for Abbots Worthy is Winchester City council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.

Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.
Are you accredited?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
What makes a kitchen extract fan rattle or whine?
Grease on the blades throws the fan out of balance and that is one of the most common reasons. Worn bearings, belts and loose mounts are others.

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, there’s also a certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Report new noises from the fan early
Listen to the fan over the next few weeks. A new noise or vibration is worth reporting early rather than waiting for it to fail.
A fan that is starting to make noise is giving you a warning. Getting it checked now means a planned repair instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
Common problems we fix in Abbots Worthy
Fan bearings do not last for ever, especially in a hot, greasy airstream. Worn bearings whine, rumble or grind and a seized bearing stops the fan.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Abbots Worthy, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.
