Working in Banbridge
As well as Banbridge itself (BT25, BT31 and BT32), we survey in Craigavon, Portadown and Newry.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Banbridge: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Banbridge home is listed or in a period terrace, a fan ducted through the loft to a roof vent can avoid a new hole in the front wall, though consent may still apply. Fans fitted in Banbridge bathrooms are wired by a qualified electrician, with RCD protection and an isolator outside the room.
Supplies across most of County Down 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
- Rigid or semi-rigid ducting kept short and straight, and insulated where it crosses a cold loft
- 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
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
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.
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.
Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, ventilation is covered by Technical Booklet K, and building control is involved where a new bathroom is formed. There is no Part P, but the fan should be wired, tested and certified to BS 7671.
