I seem to have failed to post anything for ages again. Bah.
This week we had a second Solatube installed - this time in the windowless en-suite shower, so it has an integral extractor fan. It was a bit more involved this time, as we had to get an electrician to disconnect the old extractor fan and then reconnect the new one and separate the lights from the extractor (so we can have either on without the other if we want to), as the Solatube installers don't do any electrical work. They're nice chaps though :)
The light coming in makes an enormous difference to the previously dark and gloomy room.
Since we had the electrician coming in anyway, we also got him to swap over the lightswitch in the lounge - it's a dimmer switch, which we don't need and which has always been a bit awkward to use, so we've now got an ordinary rocker switch, which has a much more positive feel to it.
While he was here, he informed us that our fuse box isn't up to standard, so we've asked him to replace that for us at some point, although we don't have a firm date for it yet.
