What the work involves
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. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own rules, which we follow where the job is.
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.
