Hi
Had a visit from the Building Control people today. I am in the process of building an extension which will house a kitchen and a utility room and they want me to put in an extractor fan in both rooms 60 l p/sec for the kitchen and 30 l p/sec for the utility room.
The kitchen itself will have an island with an in build extractor fan but they are quite adamant that it needs to extract directly outside.
Its not a massive deal but could do without having to do this. Its a pitched roof extension with 2 velux windows in the kitchen 1.6m x 800 and 1 in the utility room. The utility room will only house a washing machine, tumble dryer and a sink.
Is there anyway around having to put two holes in the wall to accommodate these? As they will be on view I would have to get decent looking ones (not white) but won't if they are not necessary.
In my bathroom I have fitted one that automatically turns on and off whenever it needs to ie not connected to the lights, don't know if this kind of this is required.
Does anyone know?
