Working in Nottingham
We work right across Nottingham — NG1, NG3, NG5 and 3 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring West Bridgford and Hucknall.
In a city the size of Nottingham, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. We check the duct route at Nottingham surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. If your Nottingham bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check.
Most of Nottinghamshire has hard water. 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
- 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 fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
Decisions to make first
Replacement air
A fan needs air to replace what it removes, so leave a gap of around 10 mm under the door or fit a door grille. A sealed room starves the fan.
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.
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.
