1) How to tell if your bathroom fan is too weak
If you’re starting to notice steam from the bathroom remains in the room for longer than normal periods, you might need to have the extractor fan looked at. I work with homeowners who believe the bathroom fan still works as they can hear the spinning sound when switched on, but actually very little moisture is extracted.
Back to top2) Signs the bathroom fan is too weak
I always suggest customers look out for signs as early as possible as this will cause the least amount of damage to bathroom fixtures and your home.
If the bathroom fan is too weak, you might notice a lingering damp smell from the bathroom. The tiles, walls and mirrors in the bathroom might have steaks of water running down.
Once you step out of the bath or shower, is the mirror excessively foggy? If so, you may need to consider bathroom fan replacement at your Bradford home.
Back to top3) What could be the problem with my bathroom extractor fan?
There are various faults which could be hindering the performance of the extractor fan. As an experienced electrician and extractor fan installer, I’m more than happy to investigate. Once a fault has been diagnosed, I'm confident in finding a solution to improve the quality of air flow in your bathroom.
In my experience, extractor fans may run at poor functionality or if the ducting system was incorrectly installed. In some cases, homeowners have noticed the blades of the fan spinning but find damp, stale air remains. This could indicate a problem with another component in the fan. So ultimately, what ends up happening is the fan might make the typical whirring sound but actually fails to extract moisture from the bathroom.
Back to top4) Solutions if my extractor fan is too weak
The benefit of working with Quality Electrician is the abundance of solutions we have at our fingertips. My recommendation would be to consider upgrading to a DMEV or Decentralised Mechanical Extract Ventilation fan. DMEV’s are an innovative relative of the traditional bathroom fan. DMEV fans run 24/7 at a “trickle” or low speed, providing round the clock ventilation. They are also very quiet and seamless to install, especially for extractor fan specialists like myself.
