Extractor fans for Washwood Heath 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 Washwood Heath

What is the price of new extractor fans in Washwood Heath?

Guide prices for Washwood Heath use West Midlands rates: like-for-like extractor fan replacement (existing duct and wiring) is typically £175 to £295 inc VAT per fan. We confirm a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

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.

Do you need building regulations for a new extractor fan?

Fitting or replacing an extractor fan has to meet the ventilation and electrical rules, and certain electrical work is notifiable. We do the work to the current standards. Electrical work that is notifiable is certified by a registered electrician, and you get a copy of the certificate and our airflow readings.
