If steam, smells or mould keep popping up, your extractor fan is probably the culprit. A broken or under‑performing fan can make cooking a nightmare and leave your bathroom humid. Knowing the early warning signs and how to fix them saves money and stops bigger problems down the line.
First thing to check – is the fan still making noise? A rattling or humming sound often means the motor or blades are dirty or loose. Next, feel the airflow. Hold a piece of paper near the vent; if it barely lifts, the fan is under‑performing. Finally, look for moisture or mould around the vent. That’s a clear sign the fan isn’t pulling air out fast enough.
Most homeowners think a quick clean will solve everything, and that’s true for light build‑up. But if the motor sputters, the fan won’t start, or the speed is off, you’ll need a professional service.
