Been looking extractor fans for bathroom getting damp from moisture, poor performance extractor I think, but been looking at inline ones and also kitchen ones, does anyone use kitchen ones, providing still suitable up ratings?
 
Definitely, and make sure it slopes slightly downwards so's condensate runs downwards towards the outlet and to the outside of the building.

Aye, I forgot that point Geordie! Did a thorough job last summer in a house, approx 10m run all in all, rigid inclined ducting, all then insulated, two centrifugals with back draught shutters all over the place. All had been fine til one of the fans failed. Bloody typical, it's a fairly straight forward swap, but loft access is a swine....

Here's a really dull photo of part of it!

Some folks have all the luck!! :sailor:
 
for long runs of ducting consider using rigid ducting and a centrifugal fan

Definitely. I use the multi-stage type as in the pics below. Excellent performance even with long runs of ducting and they last forever, but they are expensive and you need 3-phase.
