Extractor fans for Newtownabbey homes
Many existing fans were never doing their job: undersized, ducted into the loft space, fitted with a flex duct crushed in the joists, or switched off by occupants because they were noisy. 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.
New fan through an outside wall
Core drilled, sleeved, wired from a fused spur and sealed outside.
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.

Questions from Newtownabbey
What is the price of new extractor fans in Newtownabbey?
Guide prices for Newtownabbey use Northern Ireland rates: like-for-like extractor fan replacement (existing duct and wiring) is typically £160 to £270 inc VAT per fan. We confirm a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
Can an extractor fan vent into the loft?
No. A fan should discharge to outside, because warm, moist air dumped in the loft condenses on the cold roof timbers and causes mould and rot there instead.
Should I get a fan with a humidity sensor?
A humidistat fan switches on when the air gets damp and runs until it clears, which suits family bathrooms and rentals where people forget the switch. A continuous-running fan is another good option.
Is the survey free in Newtownabbey?
Visits here are by arrangement. Because of the ferry or long travel involved, we quote travel separately and in writing before you commit, and we can often combine visits to keep the cost down.
