Extraction Fan Servicing · Cape Town
Extraction fan cleaning and servicing
Your extraction fan is the heart of the system. When its blades and housing are coated in grease it loses balance, wears out bearings and moves less air. We remove the fan, clean it properly, check it over and refit it so it does its job quietly and reliably.
What's included
- Fan unit removed, degreased and refitted
- Impeller and housing cleaned to restore balance
- Bearings, belts and mountings checked
- Motor and electrical connections inspected
- Test run after refitting
