Working in Uckfield
We cover every part of Uckfield, including TN22, and nearby Crowborough (7 miles) and Lewes (7.6 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Uckfield: free survey, written quote, one team. For windowless bathrooms in Uckfield homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch. In Uckfield flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey.
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
- 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
- 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
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.
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 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.
