Got a job on at the mo, ground floor single storey side extension consisting of bathroom, bedroom, & a 'kitchenette'/lounge.
Builder has just called to tell me that the owner has now specified an oven and hob in the kitchenette (previously only going to be a microwave, kettle & toaster). LABC have approved this, so the room now requires 60L/Sec extract to meet part F.
Now problem is, kitchenette area is in centre of the extension (6m to either end of building from extract point), the side (outside) wall would vent into next doors garden so thats a no no, and the build has a flat roof. Can't fit a ducted fan as no room (celotex insulation to meet part L) above ceiling, surface ducting would have to run against the joists, so even the thin stuff would look awful
Only option I can see is to go straight up through the flat roof..... now never had to do that before, has anyone had to do similar ? any suggestions ?
