Working in Wednesfield
As well as Wednesfield itself (WV10, WV11 and WV14), we survey in Willenhall, Wolverhampton and Bloxwich.
Homes in and around Wednesfield vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. In Wednesfield flats, a new vent through an outside wall may need freeholder consent, so we raise it at the survey. We check the duct route at Wednesfield surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure.
Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. 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 backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
- A check of the room, any existing fan or vent, and the shortest route to the outside
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
