Smoke without fire?: The London Fire Brigade is citing extractor fans as a cause of fires in the home
Article Abstract:
Extractor fans can be the cause of fires in the home and the London Fire Brigade's Investigation Unit has attended 97 fires involving extractor fans over the past three years. The design and the manufacture of the fans is an issue, and fans that are not produced to appropriate British Standards or the equivalent, can be legally sold. Fans should be installed in accordance with manufacturers' instructions and they should be properly maintained, kept free from dust, fluff and grease.
