How we approach extractor fans in Swadlincote
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.
Kitchen extract and cooker hoods
A wall or window fan, or a cooker hood ducted outside rather than recirculating.
Like-for-like replacement
A new fan on the existing duct and wiring, often with an overrun timer or humidity sensor.

Questions from Swadlincote
Do you cover Swadlincote and nearby?
Yes. We cover Swadlincote and nearby places including Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Burton upon Trent, Sinfin and Coalville. Send your postcode and we will confirm.
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.
What is the price of new extractor fans in Swadlincote?
