What ventilation repairs and fault finding involves
Common faults include worn fan bearings, failed capacitors and motors, condensate leaks, blocked filters, crushed or disconnected ducts, broken controls and humidity sensors that never switch the fan on. Sometimes repair is not worth it, and a modern replacement is cheaper to run; we will say so. For homes, a visit covers fans, PIV and MVHR.
Commercial repairs
Extract fans, heat recovery units and AHUs.
Kitchen extract fans
Fan motors, belts and controls on canopy systems.

Which towns in Ayrshire do you cover?
All of Ayrshire, including Saltcoats, Largs, Kilmarnock, Ayr and Irvine. If your town is not listed, send the postcode and we will confirm.
Is it worth repairing an old extractor fan?
Usually not for a basic bathroom fan, because a new fan costs little more than the repair. MVHR, PIV and commercial fans are often worth repairing.
Why is my extractor fan humming but not spinning?
A humming fan that does not spin often has a failed capacitor, seized bearing or obstruction. It should be switched off until repaired.
