Other option is buy a completely different brand but that will not be £99. Whatever I buy I will be doing so just because I cannot obtain a £30 impeller.
Any idea what reliable brands do have a good spares back up ?
thank you

Thank you .
Looking at product spec on AO website for a new identical chimney hood it states it is made in China .
If a new impeller cannot be found which is daft really a complete replacement hood is £177 so a no brainer buying a motor but there is also a virtually identical Stoves hood with a different model name available on AO for £99. The only difference is the fact it has a chrome rail on it that mine does not have. So I could buy either of them and would have a source of spares (other than impeller) if it went wrong as I can use my old one for parts which has only been used about 5 times due to it being in France and installed just before lockdown and not being able to get there due to Covid for a couple of years. The house is very slowly being renovated on a real diy beer money shoestring and it was a rogue stone that fell into the hood from above that killed the impeller earlier this year.

Even so, before I buy a hood if anyone has a good source of a impeller please let me know .
Thank you.
