Bathroom Fans and ventilation supplier
Posted on: 16 Jun 2021. Category: Bathroom FansBathroom Fans in stock now next day on-site delivery
Choosing the right bathroom fan can be confusing, pick the wrong one and you'll be re-painting the ceiling or re-grouting quicker than you think due to mould and moisture. Bathrooms are defined as areas of increased electrical hazard and it is necessary to fit ventilation products that meet a minimum of IPX5 in zone 1 and IPX4 in zone 2. This means that when installed and connected electrically, the product should prevent the ingress of water splashing and remain electrically safe in use. Building Regulations stipulate that a bathroom extractor fan must extract at least 15L/s in a standard domestic bathroom, Most 4 inch models far exceed this minimum requirement, and nowadays the standard is 85m3/hr(23.61l/s)
Ablectrics have been dealing with the biggest names for years. Airflow, Blauberg and Vent Axia are all available from stock and all provide us with the information needed to keep your bathroom moisture free. The majority of fans fitted in bathrooms are wall mounted 4 inch, Most have timers, some have humidity controls. If you want to avoid having a fan on the wall the alternative is a inline fan, these hide in the loft with a run of ducting leading to a small slim round grill on the ceiling(as well as another heading outside). With the fan not being in the room this keeps the noise even to a minimum. Noisy fans are the most common complaint in a bathroom(especially during the night when trying to not wake others), this can be avoided though a number of quiet fans and our most popular ones are the Airflow Quietair QT100T, the Blauberg Calm and the Vent Axia Svara App controlled fan.

Types of Fan
There are a few different types of extractor fan for you to be aware of. The most common are Axial(connected directly through an external wall and are used when the air doesn't need to be moved long distances or Centrifugal(designed for bathrooms that are not close to an external wall and move air longer distances) Axial fans extracted air is forced to move parallel to the shaft about which the blades rotate, Centrifugal fans extract air at right angles to the intake of the fan, and spin the air outwards to the outlet by deflection and centrifugal force producing a higher output.
Classification of zones for your bathroom
There are currently 3 zones in a bathroom and each one needs a different rating:
Zone 0: The interior of the bath or shower tray)not applicable to fans, more for lighting)
Zone 1: The exterior of the bath or shower tray to a height of 2.25 metres above the floor.
Zone 2: Extends to 0.60 metres beyond Zone 1 to a height of 2.25 metres above the floor.

Conduit Lighting Specialists
Posted on: 11 Jun 2021. Category: Conduit Lighting SpecialistsConduit Lighting Specialists
Metal Conduit is steel round tubing (galvanised) and usually used for running cables where there is no way to hide them behind a wall. It is robust, industrial and easy to fit. It protects cable from a number of hazards and because of it's hardwearing capabilities and lasts for years. This is mainly used in factories and workshops where the need for hiding the cables is not neccessary. This industrial look is popular in the home now for certain applications(usually kitchens) and we have created a range of Light fittings, batton holders and wall lights to take advantage of this. Everything we make and sell is listed online and can be delivered in 4-5 days.
Conduit Wall Lights
Wall Lights in the conduit range would require the conduit itself to be run either along the wall(for multiple lights) or from a centre point in the ceiling which can be achieved by bending it(a particular tool is required) and you can view how this would look on our display in our Bristol showroom. We have adjustable reading lights, adjustable GU10 spotlights and fixed decorative lights.
Conduit Pendant lights
We can convert nearly any pre made pendant into a conduit suitable pendant but our Verdgris copper pendants are ideal for this. A range of sizes can accommodate any dining table or breakfast bar. As mentioned we can convert pendants to fit on conduit as well as offering a bespoke service for a whole system. The conduit and accessories can also be powder coated to change the finish.
Switching and Control
One of our most popular lighting options is an LED dimmer made using a galvanised conduit round surface box, suitable for all the types of LED lamps we stock.These lights, along with the rest of our ranges, can be used using the Rako controls Lighting system.
