Working in Kilmarnock
We work right across Kilmarnock — KA1 — and in neighbouring Irvine and Kilwinning.
Homes in and around Kilmarnock vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Kilmarnock bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check. Fans fitted in Kilmarnock bathrooms are wired by a qualified electrician, with RCD protection and an isolator outside the room.
Water across much of Ayrshire is 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
- A fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
Decisions to make first
Wall or ceiling
A wall fan on an outside wall is the simplest. A ceiling fan over the shower takes steam away at source but needs ducting through the loft.
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.
