My Bathroom fan has finally died, it has always been rubbish and I wanted to replace it with the best (sensibly priced) extractor I could.
Old one was roof mounted external one, feeding plastic 4 inch pipe.
After reading on here that if possible an in-line one is better I went to screwfix and got the £30 manrose kit they were offering.
Going up into my attic I have found that the only place I could put the extractor is about 50cm from the bathroom on a bit of pipe that goes at 45 degrees.
Is this daft? Am I asking for trouble mounting it at 45 degrees - was thinking that the bearings might not last long!
The room is small (2.5m by 2m) and we usually leave the door open when we shower but I hate a steamy mirror!
If I was to get an in-line could I just wedge it into the pipe or would I need to mount it on something?
