Hi guys, i just want to get a general consensus on where everyone stands on fan isolation. Obviously when installing a new fan or replacing a fan then an isolator is a must. However, i have just done a PIR and picked up the fact that none of the bathrooms have fan isolators. What would you put...

Hi guys, before you mention it i know of the 450-1200mm height regulations of new build premises. My query is that a property has been re-wired recently to all the old socket/switch positions to save on chasing. This of course is perfectly acceptable. The owner of said property is thinking about...
