Working in Jarrow
As well as Jarrow itself (NE28, NE31 and NE32), we survey in Hebburn, Wallsend and South Shields.
Homes in and around Jarrow vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We check the duct route at Jarrow surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. If your Jarrow bathroom has black mould on the ceiling or silicone, the fan and its duct are the first things we check.
Most of Tyne and Wear 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
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
- Rigid or semi-rigid ducting kept short and straight, and insulated where it crosses a cold loft
- A check of the room, any existing fan or vent, and the shortest route to the outside
- A backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in
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.
Axial, centrifugal or inline
Axial fans suit short, straight runs; centrifugal fans cope better with longer ducts; inline fans sit in the loft and are the quietest in the room.
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.
