Working in Crowborough
In Crowborough we cover TN6; we also cover Tunbridge Wells, 6.6 miles away, and Uckfield.
Crowborough gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. In Crowborough flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey. Fans fitted in Crowborough bathrooms are wired by a qualified electrician, with RCD protection and an isolator outside the room.
Supplies across most of East Sussex are 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
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
Decisions to make first
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.
Timer or humidistat
A timer keeps the fan running after the light goes off. A humidistat starts it whenever moisture rises, which suits rooms where people forget.
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.
