Working in Dundee
In Dundee we cover DD1, DD2, DD3 and 2 more postcode districts; we also cover Carnoustie, 10.5 miles away, and St Andrews.
Dundee is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. We check the duct route at Dundee surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. If your Dundee bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check.
Supplies across most of Dundee and Angus 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
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
- A check of the room, any existing fan or vent, and the shortest route to the outside
- Rigid or semi-rigid ducting kept short and straight, and insulated where it crosses a cold loft
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
