The Service
Pole Star offers a comprehensive service for the Building Services Engineer, Maintenance Firms, Facilities Companies, Heating Contractors, Electrical Engineers etc. We refurbish fan decks to any design, in any quantity with quick deliveries. These are often alternatives to current competitor brands, or direct equivalents to old and obsolete models which are either no longer available, or expensive when purchased from other suppliers.
We offer both a standard turnaround which is generally 5-7 working days and we also offer an express service which is 1-2 working day turnaround. For larger volumes part shipments can be made or a whole shipment a few days later.
In many buildings as fan coils have been running for 20-30 years the bearings and motors start to fail and the moving part of the fan deck reaches the end of its life. When a deck starts to reach the end of its life many sites and eingeers look at the options of refurbishing the units. In most situations the trays, scrolls and wheels are in perfectly good condition and it is just the motor that has failed, as a result refurbishment is often a far cheaper and quicker option than manufacturing complete new units.

The Refurbishment Process
We receive a wide range of fan decks from a vast array of applications; they all arrive to us in varying conditions. Some appear in pristine condition apart from a failed motor, whilst others requite a little more care and attention to bring them back to their original condition.
Here are some of the cleaning processes which we may use in order to refurbish the fan decks:
Chemically dipped
We use an industrial cleaning chemical to dip the complete trays in overnight, this helps “lift” the dirt, grime and grease which makes the next stage easier.
Pressure washing
Using an industrial pressure washer we spray down every deck. Again we use a cleaning fluid to clean trays, scrolls and wheels to remove any dirt that could hinder the performance whilst also making the deck more aesthetically appealing.
Scrubbing
If after the chemical dip and pressure wash some dirt remains we use our dip tray cleaner to scrub the units down. This is the final stage of cleaning.
Once cleaned the decks are dried off (at which point they can be re-sprayed if requested). They are then re-assembled complete with a new motor and new wheels.
