Working in Maesteg
We cover every part of Maesteg, including CF34, and nearby Briton Ferry (7.1 miles) and Neath (7.3 miles).
Maesteg gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. In Maesteg flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey. For windowless bathrooms in Maesteg homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch.
Most of Mid Glamorgan 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
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
- Rigid or semi-rigid ducting kept short and straight, and insulated where it crosses a cold loft
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
Rules that apply in Wales
Wales has its own Part F with similar extract rates, and its own Part P, under which new fan wiring in a bathroom is notifiable.
