Working in Hedge End
We cover every part of Hedge End, including SO30, and nearby Eastleigh (4.3 miles) and Southampton (4.5 miles).
Hedge End gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For windowless bathrooms in Hedge End homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch. In Hedge End flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey.
Supplies across most of Hampshire 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
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
- A check of the room, any existing fan or vent, and the shortest route to the outside
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
