No airflow can stop the kitchen trading
If the fan is not running, the pressure switch or airflow proving can fail and the gas interlock may prevent cooking. CKFS can help identify whether the issue is fan, motor, belt, controller, duct or airflow related.

Emergency fan repair questions
What should I do first if the extraction fan has stopped?
Call CKFS if the kitchen is closed or unsafe, then send photos of the fan, motor plate, controller and access area by WhatsApp or upload form.
Can a fan fault stop the gas interlock?
Yes. If the extract fan is not moving enough air, airflow proving can fail and the gas interlock may prevent cooking.
Can you quote replacement if the fan cannot be repaired?
Yes. CKFS can quote like-for-like replacement or suitable alternatives once fan duty, access and controls are understood.
