Working in Rottingdean
As well as Rottingdean itself (BN2 and BN10), we survey in Peacehaven, Brighton and Hove.
Rottingdean gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Rottingdean bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check. For windowless bathrooms in Rottingdean homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch.
Most of East Sussex has hard water. 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 check of the room, any existing fan or vent, and the shortest route to the outside
- 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
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
