In need of an industrial extractor fan installation? ECS Deep Clean Industries are not only the extractor fan installation specialists in Gauteng, we also deep clean and maintain your industrial extractor fan.
As a legal requirement in all restaurants, extractor fans must be installed and maintained to the prescribed by-laws. Extractor fans remove smoke, grease, and fumes ensuring a safe working environment for all employees. However, there are several common extractor fan problems that can occur at any time.
Poor airflow – Extreme heat in an industrial kitchen can take its toll on the employees often working long shifts preparing the best food your restaurant has to offer. Stagnant air in an industrial kitchen is problematic and can lead to many different problems from a health point of view.. Poor airflow in an extractor fan is often related to the fan blade. Examples of possible problems might include:
- Fan efficiency is affected.
- Dirty fan blades, and requires a deep clean
- Dampers might be closed.
- Leaks in ductwork.
- Dirty or clogged filters
- Obstructed fan inlets causing system effects (No straight duct runs at fan inlet or outlet).
- Fan not getting adequate air from outside.
- Bad smell coming from the extractor fan
Oil and grease accumulate in the filter of your extractor fans and therefore need to be maintained. The most common cause of a ba- smelling extractor fan is a dirty filter. Therefore it needs to be replaced (if possible) or properly cleaned. Without proper and regular cleaning, your extractor fan is unable to function at full capacity and might result in a fire hazard. Regular cleaning intervals are needed.
Noisy extractor fans
The noises you hear from your extractor fan might be more serious than you think. Leaving or ignoring the noises might result in a total kitchen shutdown. The most common problems with a noisy extractor fan are often due to the motor struggling to keep the fan running. Leaving this matter unattended, might result in burnout of the motor and then needs to be replaced. Determining where the noise is coming from, doesn’t have to be difficult when you have a company by your side like ECS Deep Clean Industries. With our team of specialists, we will determine the problem fast and efficiently.
