Why deal with it now?
An overloaded motor is under constant strain. Every hour of strain takes its toll, and when it finally fails, it may take other parts with it. Catching it early keeps the repair small. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Purbrook Heath rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.

Extract fan repair in Purbrook Heath
Grease and fans do not mix. Deposits on the impeller throw it out of balance and the vibration wears out bearings and fixings. So when we repair extract fan, we look at the grease too, and a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. If you’re dealing with a dead fan motor and a fan that whines, hums or grinds, we can help, from roof and wall fans, belts and pulleys and bearings onwards.
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.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What extract fan repair looks like in Purbrook Heath
Purbrook Heath is within about 2 miles of the coast. Motor mounts, bolts and housings on outdoor fans corrode faster close to the coast. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 39 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 32 takeaways and sandwich shops across Purbrook Heath and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. It’s Havant council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Purbrook Heath. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
Hall kitchens near Church of St John, or anywhere around Purbrook Heath, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.

Common questions in Purbrook Heath
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Purbrook Heath?
Purbrook Heath is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. Ring 0345 646 2711 at any hour and describe the fault. Details of the make and model help us plan the repair.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Purbrook Heath?
The local authority for Purbrook Heath is Havant 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.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?
We can’t price it without knowing the fault. After we’ve checked the fan, we give you a fixed price for whichever option you choose.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
What happens on the day
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Purbrook Heath.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- We check the motor, bearings, drive, impeller and mountings.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Purbrook Heath
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

What we are called out for in Purbrook Heath
Fan bearings do not last for ever, especially in a hot, greasy airstream. As they wear, you hear a whine or a rumble and a seized bearing stops the fan.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- A dead fan motor
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
If you manage a school such as Purbrook Junior School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

What affects the cost of extract fan repair
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- The size of the system
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The condition we find in the survey
- How easy every part is to reach
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
What a clean will not put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
