Bathroom Fan regulations

[Mug-o-Latte]

Folks,

I understand the regulations state you need to fit a bathroom fan in any new bathroom. I'm in the process of fitting a new ensuite bathroom. Do I really need to fit a fan? What are the implications if I don't (legally)?

Cheers,
MOL.

you will be killed by absence of air if someone F***s


seriously, it stops the room from getting too damp etc, few quid for fan v lifetime of damp

you decide

Really, you should do as Alcopop says, but definately without any shadow of a doubt you should do it if your en-suite has no natural ventilation.

To conform to building regulations all new bathroom installations MUST have an extractor fan installed, even if a window is present. Otherwise the B/Regulator will not issue a completion certificate.

This therefore could complicate things when you wish to sell the property if using the en-suite as a feature in the sale.

securespark, what has alcopop to do with this thread?

Maybe it's a play on names Breezer, as in Bacardi Breezer.

hadn't thought of that

Breezer, WKD, Red Square etc etc, they're all alcopops.

Yeeuch! Sticky drinks for kids who want to stand in groups in noisy pubs texting each other. Makes me shudder...

You forgot Smirnoff Ice... ::grumbles::

I like alcopops they ain't that bad. Pint of bitter is better though.

Typical Tory Dingbat. When tories see kids enjoying themselves, they just can't stand it.

Bitter ALWAYS better, and if it's real ale, better still.
