you don't need to comply, it's true.
so it's a cost/benefit exercise, factoring in Mrs Howard's expectations..

Back story is that the builder has suggested fitting an extractor + flu
I'm not sure he's done his homework. I worry that I'd be paying for something that a) I don't need and b) doesn't work.
If it could be shown to me that it will work, I would pay for it. I just don't know the question to ask. Until now. So is the question/s: 'is it designed to meet building regs? can you prove it?'

Great, thanks - so they work as long as they are specc'd in compliance with the regs?
As I understand it an existing bathroom doesn't need to comply whereas a new one would.
My overarching question would be is it worth the pain + expense of fitting a flu when a good cleaning regime and dehumidifier can do as good a job?
