Working in Haywards Heath
We work right across Haywards Heath — RH16 — and in neighbouring Burgess Hill and Crawley.
Homes in and around Haywards Heath vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We check the duct route at Haywards Heath surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. For windowless bathrooms in Haywards Heath homes, continuous extract that boosts on humidity often works better than a fan tied to the light switch.
Supplies across most of West Sussex are hard. Steam carries that scale onto mirrors and glass, so a fan that clears the room quickly helps on both counts. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
- 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
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
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.
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.
