Extractor fans for Desborough 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.

Rules that apply in England

Questions from Desborough
How do I get a price for new extractor fans in Desborough?
Use the guide price tool, the form on this page, live chat, WhatsApp or call 0800 088 6341. A postcode and a couple of photos help us give you a useful answer first time.
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.
