Muggles, thank you for your reply.
The kitchen is small - 11ft (3.35m) by 2.1 m by 2.4 m. The casement window that used to open to the garden opens into an extension utility room that was added in the 1970s. There is a fixed circular vent mounted in the glass.
The only door from the kitchen leads to the living room.
The cooker is a Cannon Cambridge gas council no 11.133.66
model number 10282G. It is about 13 years old.
The shaft that served the fan - that ceased to work when the engineer was doing the service, was for an Expelair GX6 fan and is 7inch/18cm in diameter (at least). The fan has been removed and a vent put over the hole hence the cold air rushing in. At the moment I feel 'over ventilated'.
If the standard respose is 'fit an airbrick' I don't think that is going to be possible because the shaft is diagonally through the cavity wall to reach the outside(otherwise it would have gone into the wall of the extension) . Hence the need to know exactly what ventilation capacity is needed, ideally shaft requirement (diameter and lining) and vent size - then off to
Screwfix! Sorry if this seems pedantic.
Who advised me? The british gas engineer who serviced the cooker.
I need a stability chain/bracket - I hope to fix this myself (I don't think I need a Corgi person to do this) and I was advised that I had inadequate ventilation with the extractor fan in place. An At Risk notice is on the cooker. So I have removed the fan, am about to chain the cooker to the wall but don't want to get anyone in to check it etc until I know what the expectation is regarding the vent. Then I want to clear my good cooker's name and get rid of the label.
Hopefully this helps you picture my predicament. Thank you so much for your time.
