Working in Walsall
We cover every part of Walsall, including WS1, WS2, WS4 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Wednesbury (2.9 miles) and Wednesfield (4.3 miles).
Across a large town like Walsall, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. Fans fitted in Walsall bathrooms are wired by a qualified electrician, with RCD protection and an isolator outside the room. In Walsall flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey.
Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. 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
- 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
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
