Working in Milton Keynes
As well as Milton Keynes itself (MK6, MK9, MK10 and 1 more postcode districts), we survey in Leighton Buzzard, Ampthill and Kempston.
Milton Keynes is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. For windowless bathrooms in Milton Keynes homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch. In Milton Keynes flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey.
Water across much of Buckinghamshire is hard. Steam carries that scale onto mirrors and glass, so a fan that clears the room quickly helps on both counts. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in
- 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
Axial, centrifugal or inline
Axial fans suit short, straight runs; centrifugal fans cope better with longer ducts; inline fans sit in the loft and are the quietest in the room.
Noise
Compare the stated noise level in decibels. Inline fans and low-speed continuous fans are much quieter in the room than budget axial fans.
Rules that apply in England
In England, Approved Document F sets bathroom extract at 15 l/s for an intermittent fan or 8 l/s for continuous extract. Wiring a new fan alters a circuit in a room with a bath or shower, so it is notifiable under Part P.
