Working in Kingswood
We cover every part of Kingswood, including BS15, BS16 and GL12, and nearby Mangotsfield (2.4 miles) and Keynsham (2.7 miles).
Homes in and around Kingswood vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We check the duct route at Kingswood surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. If your Kingswood bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check.
Most of Gloucestershire 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
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
- A check of the room, any existing fan or vent, and the shortest route to the outside
- A backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
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 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.
