Extractor fans for Whiston 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.
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.

Guide prices for Whiston use North West rates: like-for-like extractor fan replacement (existing duct and wiring) is typically £165 to £280 inc VAT per fan. We confirm a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
How much does it cost to fit an extractor fan?

What size extractor fan does a bathroom need?
In England a bathroom fan should extract at least 15 litres a second, measured at the fan, under Approved Document F. Long or bendy duct runs reduce flow, so the fan often needs to be rated higher than the minimum.
