On closer inspection i dont know if the bathroom extractor is a Vimark! The kitchen fan definitely is and has the Vimark insignia on the plastic surround....this one measures 100mm in diameter! The bathroom fan only measures 90mm in diameter but doesnt have the Vimark insignia. It also a circular design, probably for aesthetic reasons as the spotlights are circular, albeit theyre smaller, and the plastic surround is very narrow, probably an inch in diameter. The kitchen device is square and larger! Possibly the circular one is just a guard on the bathroom ceiling with the fan itself behind it an inch or so....so hes had to attach it in the loft? So, possibly it is the same make and model! I'll have to get up there to check. I mean, really i shouldnt be needing to do all this as i have wear & tear in a knee and in my lower back on top of other stuff thats happened these last few years. The plasterers who filled the chases have also left some of their work un-smooth so ive contacted them to come and sand it down. They say they'll be here from 3pm to look at any defects!

How would knowing the make and model help you?

What you describe sounds like an inlet, with an in-line fan fitted further up the ducting in the loft.

Have you shared your concerns with the electrician? It would probably be better to ask him. If I were him I’d like to know if a customer was unhappy and he can’t advise you or change anything if he doesn’t know about it.

Thanks ive been standing on a stepladder and shined a torch under the circular guard and there is just ducting and no sign of a fan so i think hes done as youve described!
