Working in Dukinfield
We cover every part of Dukinfield, including OL6, OL7 and SK16, and nearby Ashton-under-Lyne (1.1 miles) and Stalybridge (1.4 miles).
Dukinfield gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For windowless bathrooms in Dukinfield homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch. If your Dukinfield home is listed or in a period terrace, a fan ducted through the loft to a roof vent can avoid a new hole in the front wall, though consent may still apply.
Supplies across most of Greater Manchester 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
- A fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
- 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.
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.
