Working in Cambuslang
We cover every part of Cambuslang, including G73, and nearby Rutherglen (2.4 miles) and Blantyre (2.7 miles).
In Cambuslang, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. In Cambuslang flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need agreement from the other owners or the factor, so we raise it at the survey. For windowless bathrooms in Cambuslang homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch.
Most of Lanarkshire is supplied with soft water. 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 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
- 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.
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 Scotland
In Scotland, the Technical Handbook also uses 15 l/s extract for a bathroom. A replacement fan rarely needs a building warrant, but forming a new bathroom may.
