Kitchen suitable Kitchens without a cooker hood have to have an extractor fan with a flow rate of 60l/sec or above, and most 100mm or 125 mm fans are lower than this. With excellent high extraction rates of over 60l/sec, this extractor fan is ideal for use in a kitchen environment. Timer controlled Extractor fans with a built-in timer control means that the fan will operate with the bathroom light switch and then overrun for a set amount of time to continue removing moisture from the air. This is great for steamy bathrooms, allowing you to turn the light off but continue with extraction for a short time. 65 ltr/s extraction rate Building regulations stipulate that extractor fans need to be able to extract at least 60 litres of air per second in a kitchen without a cooker hood. It’s needed to ensure a minimal build-up of moisture in the room due to cooking steam, reducing mould and grime in damp areas. This fan will extract an excellent 65 litres per second, so you can relax that your kitchen is fully covered.

Axial Axial type fans cause gas to flow through in an axial direction which is parallel to the shaft where the blades rotate, making the flow axial at exit and entry. Axial fans are designed to create a pressure difference and force which produces a flow through the fan. 3 Year Guarantee When buying anything for your home you need to know that its going to stand the test of time.
