Working in Bathgate
As well as Bathgate itself (EH48), we survey in Livingston, Broxburn and Grangemouth.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Bathgate: free survey, written quote, one team. We check the duct route at Bathgate surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. In Bathgate 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.
Supplies across most of the Lothians 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
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
- A check of the room, any existing fan or vent, and the shortest route to the outside
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
- A fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous
Decisions to make first
Timer or humidistat
A timer keeps the fan running after the light goes off. A humidistat starts it whenever moisture rises, which suits rooms where people forget.
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.
