    Humidistat Extractor Fans In Kitchen and Utility Rooms - Isolator Needed?

    Humidity only. What I think I will do is just get a two pole for the grid (luckily there is space for one) in the kitchen and then get a double pole one for the utility. No space on that grid so will get a new face plate etc which will fit all. Thanks very much

    Humidistat Extractor Fans In Kitchen and Utility Rooms - Isolator Needed?

    Just thinking about this, I have a grid switch which I can add the extractors to, would this be sufficient? The one in the kitchen I could connect to that so it would be isolated there. It would be great if it was allowed to isolate both from the same switch but if this is not allowed I could...

    Humidistat Extractor Fans In Kitchen and Utility Rooms - Isolator Needed?

    Hi I'm putting in a couple of extractor fans, one in my Kitchen and one in my Utility Room and need to understand if Isolator switches are required. These are both Humidistat ones so they go on and off on their own, both of these are close to natural light (both from above velux window and from...

    Lighting Circuit Advice

    The reason for the dimmer is to get the lighting to a decent level and keep it there, I have a suspicion that when it goes live it will be too bright hence the dimmer. Yes these will be RCBOs What I am trying to understand is the actual cable rules, the way I see it (in my head) is there will...

    Kitchen Ventilation/Extraction

    No, this one is different, the hob is on the island and the extractor sits behind this. When it needs to be used (ie you are using the hob) it rises out of the island

    Kitchen Ventilation/Extraction

    Its not a hob hood, we are having a hob on the island with an electrically raised extractor that 'rises' up through the island. Its one of those charcoal ones. I think i have found a half decent one made by Environvent called Silent Design SILDES150HT which has humidistat and timer so i will...

    Kitchen Ventilation/Extraction

    Looks like i have two option here 1. Get one that is non white for wall mounting and go direct out but i am now worried that it will be too close to the external patio doors (not too sure if this is an issue but i would guess there is a distance the external venting needs to be from an...

    Kitchen Ventilation/Extraction

    I totally get it all really, obvs needs to vent externally BUT was kind of hoping that the expensive one i bought for the island would suffice, there is also windows in there which can be opened and these mahoosive velux windows. All i really need is to find something a little funky looking...

    Belfast Butler Sink Worktop Assistance Needed

    Follow up question on the sink regarding the worktop. Should the worktop flow around the sink ie top of sink higher than the worktop? Or should the worktop sit on top of the rim of the sink? Thinking about cleaning here, if the sink rim is above then cleaning should be easier as i could mastic...

    Hi Building an extension and doing the first fix, I have all of the plumbing in already (feeds) but need to put in the hole in the wall for the sink waste. There is nothing in at the moment as it is a fitted kitchen. I am not too sure where to drill the hole for the sink waste, I do not have it...
