Working in Inverurie
We work right across Inverurie — AB51 — and in neighbouring Aberdeen and Peterhead.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Inverurie: free survey, written quote, one team. Fans fitted in Inverurie bathrooms are wired by a qualified electrician, with RCD protection and an isolator outside the room. For windowless bathrooms in Inverurie homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch.
Most of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire is supplied with soft water. 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
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
- A fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous
- Rigid or semi-rigid ducting kept short and straight, and insulated where it crosses a cold loft
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
