    Neighbour getting smells from our extractor fan?

    Yes this might be possible and the tradesman and I discussed this option. He said he suspects there's a joist running along between the Yes need to loft up some of those ceiling panels in that corner and see if there's any joists there. Tradesman said most likely there's one running along the...

    Thanks. What is the smallest duct size you can get? Maybe it is possible to run a duct near the boiler Pipes? one guy we had out said it is the same size as the white one you see on that photo for the boiler which obviously is far too big to fit in that space.

    Yes we wanted to do your send option but the joists above run perpendicular and not sure if an good idea to put holes in the joists? Your first option down below ofcourse is possible but if you see the pictures, where would we run it? Probably jave to drill through the work surface.

    The pipes block a square section pipe fitting doesnt it? If you see the picture , this is what we were told anyway that theres no space because of those pipes.

    Neighbour getting smells from our extractor fan?

    What do you mean I haven't taken any advice? I HAVE taken all the advice given which was to get it externally vented. We have had 3 electricians who have cisted and also have confirmed It CAN NOT be extracted outdoor due to there not being space to run ducting because A) the boiler pipes take...

    Neighbour getting smells from our extractor fan?

    Thanks so an electrician could move the existing wall socket to the side, away from chimney and replace with a fused spur or just simply move the wall socket itself to away from chimney? Guessing that would leave a hole? How best to seal up the hole and what materials would I need to do this?

    Neighbour getting smells from our extractor fan?

    Is has been resolved as there are a couple of options including a flue outside. So this is mo longer an issue.

    Neighbour getting smells from our extractor fan?

    I think I know why they removed part 13, 13f and 16 when fitting it. The wall socket is in the way, so they just didnt install those essential parts and in order to fit it. and to fit part 17 ie the cover they put a hole in the false kitchen ceiling which then allowed the fumes to travel...

It is missing part 13, the long tunnel thing that's suppose to go up the fan chimney and missing 13f and 16 and also part 17 is on upside down!!!! It's off at the moment but that's the way it was fitted. Either installed totally...

    Neighbour getting smells from our extractor fan?

    What I have done to pacify the neighbour and hopefully stop the smells into his bedroom I've covered the top of the largest circle part at the top in this picture also where it says 13 on the diagram. Is this OK do you think and won't cause any serious issues or dangerous?

    Neighbour getting smells from our extractor fan?

    I spoke to an electrician and said it's not possible to vent an extractor fan, in fact let me quote him. "To get pipe out will be a problem, your boiler flue must be min 300 away from any openings to the building inc extractor openings" He said he can fit a plume like in this photo but I'm mot...

    Neighbours tree blocking most sun light to house and garden

    So there maybe regulations which state that the tree can not be above a certain height. I did speak to him about it a few weeks ago and he said he looked into getting it cut or taken down but the council legislation didn't allow him.too. Which seems strange.
