Working in Aberdeen
We cover every part of Aberdeen, including AB10, AB11, AB12 and 5 more postcode districts, and nearby Inverurie (14.3 miles) and Peterhead (27.6 miles).
In a city the size of Aberdeen, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. In Aberdeen flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need agreement from the other owners or the factor, so we raise it at the survey. If your Aberdeen bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check.
Supplies across most of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire are soft. Even so, condensation is the bigger problem in any bathroom, and a properly sized extractor is what deals with it. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
- Rigid or semi-rigid ducting kept short and straight, and insulated where it crosses a cold loft
- A backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in
Decisions to make first
Intermittent or continuous
An intermittent fan runs during and after use. A continuous fan runs quietly all the time at a low rate and boosts when humidity rises.
Replacement air
A fan needs air to replace what it removes, so leave a gap of around 10 mm under the door or fit a door grille. A sealed room starves the fan.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, the Technical Handbook also uses 15 l/s extract for a bathroom. A replacement fan rarely needs a building warrant, but forming a new bathroom may.
