Working in Biddulph
We work right across Biddulph — ST8 — and in neighbouring Kidsgrove and Congleton.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Biddulph: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Biddulph bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check. Fans fitted in Biddulph bathrooms are wired by a qualified electrician, with RCD protection and an isolator outside the room.
Supplies across most of Staffordshire are moderately hard. 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
- Rigid or semi-rigid ducting kept short and straight, and insulated where it crosses a cold loft
- Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
- A backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
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.
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 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.
