How we approach extractor fans in Lower Earley
The rate a fan delivers through a real duct run is often far lower than the number on the box, which is why we size to the room and test the result. For England, Approved Document F gives minimum intermittent extract rates: 15 litres a second for a bathroom, 30 for a kitchen with a cooker hood (60 without one), 30 for a utility room and 6 for a WC.
Ducted to outside through the loft
Insulated duct to a roof, ridge or soffit outlet so warm moist air does not condense in the loft.
Inline fans
A quiet fan in the loft serving one or two ceiling grilles in a shower room or en-suite.
