Hi All,
I have just purchased a new-build house with downstairs W.C. This room does have a window and a pre-completion snag inspection picked up that
The Building Regulations 2010 Part F, Item 5.5 state that:
“Extract ventilation to outside is required in each kitchen, utility room and bathroom
and for sanitary accommodation”
Therefore, an extract ventilation system should to be installed.
Now my developer is refusing to install an extractor fan, they wont give a reason why.
I just wanted some guidance on this, is it or is not building regulations to have an extractor fan? and are they within their rights to refuse to action ?
My brother lives in a similar house on the development and he has an extractor fan in his downstairs loo.
Any help/guidance would be appreciated.
