Exhaust Fans

We Provide Ceiling, Wall Mounted & Smart Exhaust Fans

No matter your home’s needs, we’ll have a suitable solution for you, from ceiling exhaust fans and wall-mounted fans to smart exhaust fans. Each has its own benefits and features.

Ceiling exhaust fans are typically placed near the centre of the room or more directly over areas that need the most ventilation. In the bathroom, they would be near the shower, and in the kitchen, they would be close to the stove. They’re typically attached to a duct system, propelling damp or smoky air out through a vent in the side of your home. They can either be switched on independently to the lighting or in conjunction with it every time you flip the light switch on.

Wall-mounted exhaust fans work very similarly, though they’re attached to a wall rather than the ceiling. You’ll typically find them in places like workshops, kitchens and garages for buildings where ceiling fans are impractical to install. They pull air across horizontally rather than vertically, and they’re typically a more cost-effective option with a simpler installation process as they don’t require a duct system to work.

Smart exhaust fans come with extra features, including things like moisture and odour detection, which triggers them to increase their fan speed to clear the air faster. Some also feature app integration, allowing you to refine the settings from your phone. They’re often designed to be quieter and more energy efficient, too.

Choosing the Right Exhaust Fan for Your Home

Choosing the right exhaust fan for your home depends on your budget, where you want to place it, and the size of your room. Start out by checking where you want to install your exhaust fan and measure to see the diameter you can fit. From there, you can filter by fan size. If you want an easier installation without needing to add a ceiling duct, you might want to consider a wall-mounted exhaust fan. If you’d prefer more central air extraction and can install ducting, we recommend a ceiling exhaust fan.

You may also want to consider a few other factors, including how much air your fan removes from a given room and how much noise it makes. Each individual product page provides detailed information on sizing, noise, and more.

Our Range of Exhaust Fans

There are two commonly used varieties of exhaust fans, axial fans and centrifugal fans.

Axial Exhaust Fans

For non-ducted applications a good solution would be an axial fan, simply a blade  propeller spinning around an axis drawing air in parallel. Axial fans create airflow with a high flow rate, meaning they create a large volume of airflow. However, the airflows they create are of low pressure. They require a low power input for operation.

Pros

• Low price;
• Moves large volumes of air;
• Lighter;
• Smaller;
• Lower energy consumption.

Cons

• Noisy in high speeds;
• Low pressure.

These are just helpful highlights of the important factors generally speaking.

Centrifugal Exhaust Fans

The airflow created by centrifugal fans is directed through a system of ducts or tubes. This helps create a higher pressure airflow than axial fans. Despite a lower flow rate, centrifugal fans create a steadier flow of air than axial fans. Centrifugal fans also require a higher power input.

Pros

• Durable;
• High pressure.

Cons

• Expensive;
• Heavy;
• Bulky;
• Higher energy consumption.

Therefore:

Large Volumes of airflow required without ducting - Axial Exhaust Fan

More complex controlled volumes using duct - Centrifugal Exhaust Fan

The purpose of an exhaust fan is to eliminate excess moisture and foul odours from your home.

Eliminating potential contaminants is critical for your living space, and condensation and other residues can lead to mould growth, causing respiratory issues for you and your family.

Often, Australian homeowners will install exhaust fans in their kitchen and bathroom since these are the two areas of your home that collect the most moisture. Exhaust fans will rid your room of warm air, making them ideal for cooling areas of your home.

Another benefit of exhaust fans is they improve the air quality in your home. Humidity breeds pollutants that are dangerous to your health. Plus, it makes your kitchen and bathroom unbearable to stand in. An adequate ventilation system will ensure you are breathing high-quality air each day

Without an exhaust fan, condensation is inevitable. This moisture can not only be a detriment to your health, but it can also damage the structural integrity of your home. Water damage can soften walls and cost you a lot of money in repairs.

You can filter your search for a bathroom exhaust fan by brand, colour, wattage, and more.

Wall Mounted Exhaust Fans

It is possible to mount an exhaust fan on an outside wall. This placement is ideal if you do not want your ventilation fan taking up space in your room. However, make sure you hire a professional to do the installation.
