Well if you do, do bear in mind the other replies which point out that
these building regs are irrelavant to your letting scenario; as are
basically the regs themselves unless your property was built since
they were released...

One response was a clear 'no' but another was 'They are required in most
cases as part of building regs anyway'. Which leaves me confused!

I suspect the "no" was in connection with the letting scenario, which is
correct; and the "They are required in most cases as part of building
regs anyway" is also correct, but the building regs concerned may or may
not apply to you, as I tried to explain in my post. Both those answers
suffered from being too brief, hence they were apparently totally
contradictory!

If you want a one-word answer to your query: tell us when the property
was built, and whether you are changing the use of either bathroom or
bedroom.

You might also want to look at my (conicidental) current thread about
condensation in rented properties, which is why I said I thought you'd
be daft not to go ahead and fit the extractors regardless! :-)
