I hope this is the right section!
We don't have a vent in the bathroom at the moment. We need one!
I'm competent with electrics and fairly handy with basic DIY tasks. I think I should be able to wire the fan into the light. The thing putting me off is:
1) Cutting into the ceiling, if I cock it up I may ruin the pattern of the artex. I doubt I will, but this is one thing.
2) Venting into the loft. Is this okay and will I need to locate the ducting anywhere near an air brick? Our loft is a reasonable size and has an air brick either end of the space.
A further concern in ducting to the loft is that condensation may sit in the ducting and run back down into the bathroom.
Your thoughts would be great before I just go ahead and do it.
Thanks.
James.
