Why you should get an electrician to install your extractor fan

If you’re thinking of installing an extractor fan, there’s a few things to bear in mind. You’ll need to pick a fan based on its movement rating, noise and switching capabilities, and choose an installation area. And since an extractor fan is powered by electricity, it’s essential to get a Part P qualified electrician to do the work.

Your electrician will first check if the installation area is appropriate and then switch off the energy supply. They’ll fit the new extractor fan and secure the wiring. When everything is complete, they’ll turn the electricity back on and test the fan to make sure it’s working.
