Hi All,
I was up in the loft yesterday (trying to see if I had a water leak which might explain the damp that's appeared downstairs. Didn't find anything, I think it must be coming up from below :=((
In the meantime, I found myself puzzling over the in line fan which some builders recently fitted. (part of a showerlite fan).
I couldn't work out where the outlet was going - turns out they have lifted the lid on the cold tank and poked the end of the ducting in there (where it has subsequantly been squashed. I presume thay were working on the theory that the tank had an overflow pipe (somewhat smaller than 100mm dis!) going to the outside world, so the air would go out there.
I reached round and touched the fan (not screwed to anything, and the flexible ducting fell off!
The fan unit is like a piece of pipe 100mm dia and maybe 80.. long with a fan in the middle. They had attached the ducting with a single nylon tie round the outside of the ducting.
I may get them back to sort this, or I may just decide it's easier to do it myself. Either way, what is the correct/better way to fix this ducting?
