Bathrooms are among the most frequently used rooms in your house. Since these rooms also tend to be the most closed-in, the installation of small appliances like bathroom fans can be transformative. At Ace, we stock a wide range of exhaust fans to suit bathrooms of all sizes, helping to keep the air quality clear and comfortable.

What is a Bathroom Fan For?

A bathroom exhaust fan is used to pull air out of a room and pass it outside through a vent in the wall or ceiling. Many kinds of exhaust fans can be used around the home, such as in a kitchen range hood to control cooking odors and grease buildup. That said, a bathroom fan is perhaps the most important type as it removes warm, moist air to keep mildew and mold growth under control.

Without an exhaust fan, these fungus problems may continually build up, spoiling the decor, staining surfaces, and even leading to rotting and warping in wooden parts and accessories.

Bathroom Exhaust Fan Specifications

To get the most benefit out of a bathroom fan, it's important to consider several key features when choosing which model to buy.

  • Fan Size: The fan needs to be the right size and power to suit your bathroom. Larger fans can move more air more quickly, but they use more energy and can also be noisier, so don't aim for more power than you need. The air-moving ability of an exhaust fan is measured in cubic feet per minute (CFM), and it's recommended that a fan should have 1 CFM for every square foot of floor space.
  • Noise Levels: The noise level of a bathroom fan is measured in 'sones', with lower numbers meaning quieter operation. Ideally, look for a fan with a high CFM and a low sones rating, with between 2 and 5 sones ideal for the average-sized space.
  • Energy Efficiency: When looking at the technical features, fans with an Energy Star certification use up to 70% less energy than regular fans, so consider looking for this rating to reduce the costs of running a particularly large or powerful fan.

Useful Bathroom Vent Fan Features

As well as the main ventilation function, bathroom fans can come with useful extra features:

  • Lights: A bathroom exhaust fan with a light saves on ceiling space, while also increasing convenience by turning on both the fan and lighting at the same time.
  • Motion-detectors: Motion-sensing fans can switch off automatically in empty rooms, saving energy.
  • Humidity sensors: Humidity sensing functions can make the fan operate only when air moisture reaches a certain level, increasing convenience.
  • Built-in heaters: Fans with an in-built heater can provide quick and easy infrared heat whenever the fan is activated, making winter bathing more comfortable.
