Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
Once we are done, the extract is back in service. We clear up after ourselves and explain anything you need to know.
Clogged filters make the fan strain. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and protects the motor.
Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Romsey
Our engineers handle all sorts of fan faults in Romsey, from rattling and humming to a fan that has stopped dead. We find the cause, give you a fixed price and fix it, or the fan is replaced if repair does not make sense. We’re often asked to deal with a dead fan motor and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork, on bearings, fan motors and kitchen extract fans.
Many fans around a town like Romsey sit on a flat roof or an outside wall, exposed to wind and rain as well as grease. In time, belts, bearings and motors wear.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What extract fan repair looks like in Romsey
Food Standards Agency records list about 41 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 15 takeaways across Romsey and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Those that cook under a canopy rely on a fan that runs every hour they’re open. In Romsey, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Test Valley council. Ventilation is part of food hygiene law, which expects it to be suitable and sufficient. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near St Swithun's Church or elsewhere in Romsey, can seize between uses. If you manage a school such as Romsey Primary School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

Why act early in Romsey
In kitchens with an interlocked gas supply, no extract can mean no cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. Whatever the system, dirt and wear only get worse.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

How it works
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Photos taken on a phone are normally enough for us to plan a job in Romsey and give a fixed quote.
- We ask what the fan is doing, from noise and vibration to a full stop.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- We check the motor, bearings, drive, impeller and mountings.
- We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
How the job changes from site to site
Impellers and housings
A damaged or corroded impeller can’t simply be cleaned. It may be replaced on its own, or with the whole fan.
Belt-driven fans
In a belt-driven fan, the motor drives the impeller by belt. Worn belts squeal and slow the fan down, so we check the pulleys and bearings as well.
For landlords and multi-site operators
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Romsey and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Romsey
Kitchen extract fans in Romsey face the same conditions as anywhere else: hot, greasy, damp air for hours on end. Condensation can corrode parts, and age catches up with every fan in the end.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A fan rattling in its housing
If you cook near Romsey station, long trading hours wear fan belts and bearings, so noise and vibration are worth reporting early.

Questions from Romsey
Can the work in Romsey be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Romsey needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Romsey out of hours?
Extract fan emergencies in Romsey are covered around the clock. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
Which sectors do you work in?

Are you accredited?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
It can be one of a few things, from a worn bearing to a loose fixing. It’s worth having it diagnosed before the fault gets worse.
Will you fit a new fan if ours can’t be repaired?
We do. Where a fan is beyond repair, we replace it with one suited to the duct and the kitchen, and you get a fixed quote first.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
