Working in Dinnington

As well as Dinnington itself (S25), we survey in Maltby, Worksop and Rotherham.

Dinnington gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Dinnington 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. If your Dinnington bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check.

Most of South Yorkshire has moderately hard water. Scale is a minor issue next to condensation, which is what a properly sized extractor fan is for. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

  • 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
  • Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
  • A backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in

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.

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.

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.

Who handles building control for a bathroom extractor fan in Dinnington?

What extraction rate does a bathroom fan need?
