Working in Cleethorpes
As well as Cleethorpes itself (DN35), we survey in Grimsby, Louth and Kingston upon Hull.
Homes in and around Cleethorpes vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Cleethorpes bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check. If your Cleethorpes 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.
Water across much of Lincolnshire is 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
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
- 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
- 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.
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.
