Working in Hunts Cross
In Hunts Cross we cover L19, L24 and L26; we also cover Allerton, 1.4 miles away, and Halewood.
Hunts Cross gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. In Hunts Cross flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey. If your Hunts Cross bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check.
Water across much of Merseyside is 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
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
- A fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous
- 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
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.
Intermittent or continuous
An intermittent fan runs during and after use. A continuous fan runs quietly all the time at a low rate and boosts when humidity rises.
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.
