Hmmm.. just got this Ubbing slates vent from Ebay delivered. Its different from the pic (which is ok I guess), but the adapter is a 160mm one!! They confirmed me its 100mm... Now how add 100mm to 160mm thats the question? :(

I will go for the Manrose 25w from Screwfix...(cheaper than B&Q). Yes its 'only' a 25w,,, but centrifugal and 100m3/hr should be fine (ducting will be around 1,5 meters anyway, and its a bargain. Will just have a pullcord installed to operate, should be straight forward. Thanks for your...

Hi Thats the one I was looking originally.. its actually 25w not 35w. Reviews seem pretty ok to me.

It is a 'family' bathroom, but small. Typical old mid-terrace one, around 1.8 x 2,5 square meters. Im looking at a centrifugal inline one installed to loft.. budget up to £100.

Hey Ive been narrowing down my search for the most efective/reliable/price model. Ive read good reviews about the Xpelair XIM100 T one (inline fan for loft)...

Hi Scottishslater; Is it the UB17 + adapter you prefer for shower extractor fan? Otherwise Im intersted in this Universal Inline Slate Vent - but worried rain water will push in...(?) Thanks

Hiya. Yes most doesn't make sense. I've got an electrician doing the actual work, but Im getting the parts. I still need to know if a pullcord is good idea. Mainly to turn off the fan for night time? Or just the switch outside. Hope my question makes sense.

Hey Is there any difference in choosing between a pull cord inside the bathroom or switch outside? Im planning to install this extractor fan in the loft - inlet on the bathroom ceiling: http://www.screwfix.com/p/manrose-chrome-white-25w-in-line-centrifugal-shower-fan-kit/41379 I have...

Hi. Thanks for replying. Whats the adapter like you need with this one? It doesnt fit to a standard round 100mm - or is it one of the oval ones? Also, how good is this one preventing rain water coming in, especially on windy day. Do you have any expericece? Many thanks!!

Hi. Need a vent on slate roof for bathroom extractor fan. Its 100yr old mid terrace, extractor fan will be in line one and in loft space. I cant seem to find reviews etc of which vent type is the best. Dont want want one where rain comes in or wind keeps us awake either... please can you...

Yes indeed Thanks

I know what you mean with looking p00. The existing socket will actually end up inside a new kitchen cabinet so out of way to be seen. Using the plug would allow me to just drill a hole for wire instead of needing do more damage to the wall. The height of the socket might actually allow me...

Is this possible or near insane idea? I need to install a safety/pir light outside our kitchen extension next to the backdoor. Inside the kitchen there is a socket close to the backdoor. Could I drill a hole next to it, take a cable outside to the light, but leave a standard plug on the...

Thanks Ban all sheds, Still waiting... hes been quite busy so need wait and see. Otherwise Ive read plenty now about ducts on loft (condesation, insulation). As soon as I get the vent on roof the rest shoule be fine (I hope!). Thanks for all your comments everyone!

Thanks guys for plenty of posts. Have been done lot of thinking: I stumbled across a roof slate vent (under £10 from B&Q). So Im trying to get hold of a builder friend to have it installed and then just have a inline extractor fan installed on the loft... and have someone do the wiring...
