Had a couple of days off with man flu. Meanwhile, neighbour's been
having work done. Making a right racket, heavy drilling at/near the
party wall for several hours. The room's a kitchen - about 3mx4m. It's
stopped now and this has popped out:

http://flic.kr/p/kuBDV4

I don't think that's a normal extractor - it's way over the (what I
thought was) standard. That must be 25cm . . .

Any idea what it might be for?

I would/will ask but far too ill to venture out :-)

Looks like a normal 6" duct... lots of kitchen extractors use that size.

Unless those are unusually large bricks :-)

Er is that through the party wall venting onto your space perchance? Nice!

.......and i.m.e. 150mm is the ideal size for domestic kitchens. 100mm plastic flexible ducting coupled to a weedy fan isn't worth a flying ....

Are your neighbours Turkish/Indian/Chinese?

Have you spotted any neon signs being erected?

I won't be drawn :-)

It is a fair bit bigger than 150mm using the bricks as a measure
(they're standard 9" x 4.5" bricks). I guess it's just an extractor, a
bloody big extractor.

That was my immediate reaction too :-D They're not blanking out the
widows too are they RJH? And plumbing into your electricity? And
clumping about in the loft a lot?

Aligns nicely with my kebab shop theory :-)

Apparently a single plant has a street value of around £300. Makes you
think dunnit :-)

A grill for a 4" fan usually covers two brick courses. So probably a 5" fan.

A standard brick is 9" long, 4.5" wide and 3" high, which makes that
about a 6" duct.
