Ventilation Testing

Anglia Air Testing are BPEC Certified, which allows us to inspect and commission ventilation systems for part F of the UK building regulations. These regulations were introduced in 2010, since then you may be asked by your building control to have your kitchen & bathroom extractor fans tested to verify their rate of extraction.

How a Ventilation Test Works

Using purpose made equipment we can verify the air flow measurements for all the extractor fans within a building.

Kitchens and utility rooms extractors should extract at a rate of 30 litres per second, bathrooms 15 l/s and cloakrooms 6 l/s. Long and indirect ducting should be avoided as this can adversely affect the extraction rate of your fans.

These tests can be carried out on most forms of domestic ventilation, ranging from intermittent extractors fans to whole house mechanical extractor systems with heat recovery.

If you need an air leakage test as well as ventilation testing we can carry out both on the same visit and offer a discounted rate.
