Extract fan repair in North Boarhunt, done properly
Everything a kitchen extract does depends on the fan. Once it turns noisy, sluggish or stops altogether, the kitchen gets hot and smoky very quickly. We find out why and put it right, by repairing the fan or replacing it. If you are dealing with an extract that vibrates through the ductwork and a motor that trips out or overheats, we can put it right.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

North Boarhunt: your questions answered
Which environmental health team covers North Boarhunt?
Food hygiene inspections in North Boarhunt are carried out by Winchester City council. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.
Is North Boarhunt within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and North Boarhunt is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
Which sectors do you work in?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.
Do we need to close the kitchen for fan work?
The fan has to be isolated while we work on it, so cooking under the canopy has to stop. That is why we work evenings, overnight and at weekends.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a dated report with pictures, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
What is TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

Managing agents and facilities teams in North Boarhunt
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
How it works
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in North Boarhunt knowing what to expect.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
What the work involves, part by part
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Sometimes a clean is all it needs as long as the bearings are still sound.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Many kitchen extract fans sit on a roof or an outside wall. Access affects how long a repair takes and we plan around it.
What extract fan repair looks like in North Boarhunt
Kitchens in North Boarhunt get their food hygiene inspections from Winchester City council. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
If you manage a school such as Newtown Soberton Infant School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

What to send for a quote

- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.
What we’re called out for in North Boarhunt
Fans everywhere, North Boarhunt included, live in a hard environment: hot, greasy, damp air for hours on end. Moisture can rust housings and fixings and eventually any fan simply wears out.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A squealing belt on start-up
Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near Church of the Holy Trinity or elsewhere in North Boarhunt, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up.
What to look for in a quote
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- How they set the interval to the next visit
Leave it or put it right?
A fan that is running slowly is not clearing the kitchen properly. Staff work in hotter, steamier air, and more grease settles where it shouldn’t. Planning a trip to North Boarhunt ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
