How we approach extractor fans in Croxteth
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.
Like-for-like replacement
A new fan on the existing duct and wiring, often with an overrun timer or humidity sensor.
New fan through an outside wall
Core drilled, sleeved, wired from a fused spur and sealed outside.
