Part by part
Direct-drive fans
In a direct-drive fan, the impeller sits on the motor shaft. There are no belts, so faults tend to be in the motor, bearings or impeller.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Corrosion of housings and fixings is common.

Emerson Park: your questions answered
Who inspects food businesses in Emerson Park?
The local authority for Emerson Park is Havering council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Emerson Park out of hours?
Extract fan emergencies in Emerson Park are covered around the clock. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we will talk through the fault and access. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.
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.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
It depends on the fault. After diagnosing, we explain whether it can be repaired, then give you a fixed quote.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
Common causes are grease on the impeller, worn bearings, slipping belts and loose mountings. Rattles, whines and grinding point to different faults, and we diagnose it on site.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
When to call us in Emerson Park
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. The fan’s movement then travels into the ductwork and structure, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
- A fan rattling in its housing
- A motor that trips out or overheats
If you manage a school such as Nelmes Primary School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Extract fan repair around Emerson Park
There are about 162 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 38 takeaways across Emerson Park and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. Food hygiene inspections in Emerson Park are the job of Havering council’s environmental health team. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. Getting the fan running again is the priority. London extract fans are often at the end of long duct runs, on roofs or in basements.
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near All Saints or elsewhere in Emerson Park, can seize between uses. For a takeaway near Emerson Park station, a fan that fails on a busy evening means turning customers away, and our emergency line runs 24/7.

Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
Before we leave, the fan is run and checked. We explain the fault and the fix along with anything else that needs watching.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. Keeping grease off the impeller is one of the simplest ways to protect it and that means less wear.

How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Most London sites can’t stop for the day, so work in Emerson Park is typically done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Clear loose items from the work area

Why it’s worth doing now in Emerson Park
A noisy fan rarely fixes itself. Worn bearings can seize without much warning, and that often happens mid-service. A repair booked now is simpler than an emergency later. In Emerson Park, a planned overnight visit is much easier than closing unexpectedly.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
