The Xpelair Simply Silent Extractor Fan removes excess moisture and unwanted odours from bathrooms, cloakrooms and similar spaces. Its two-speed axial motor provides a choice of extraction rates while keeping power consumption and operating noise low.
The fan can be connected to the bathroom light switch, allowing ventilation to run whenever the light is on. Unlike a timer model, it stops when switched off unless the electrical installation provides another control arrangement.
Two Extraction Speeds
The fan provides two selectable performance levels:
54m³/h at 22dB(A)
76m³/h at 34dB(A)
The lower setting prioritises quiet operation, while the higher speed provides stronger extraction when more steam or humidity needs to be cleared.
Quiet Operation
At its lowest setting, the fan produces just 22dB(A) measured at three metres. This makes it suitable for en-suites and bathrooms where reduced background noise is important.
Energy-Efficient Performance
Power consumption is 6.7W on the lower speed and 7.7W on the higher speed. The corresponding specific fan-power figures are 0.45 and 0.37W/l/s.
Switch Operated
The fan can be wired to operate with the bathroom light switch. Switching on the light starts extraction, and switching it off stops the fan.
For ventilation that continues after leaving the room—or starts automatically when humidity rises—consider a timer or humidistat model instead.
Recessed Installation
The fan can be fitted into a compatible wall, window or ceiling. Its recessed design keeps most of the unit concealed and leaves a neat, low-profile finish visible in the room.
Axial Fan Design
Axial blades move air parallel to the fan’s shaft, creating efficient airflow through straightforward installations. Axial fans are best suited to short duct runs with limited resistance; longer or more complex ducting may require a mixed-flow or centrifugal model.
IPX4 and Zone 1 Rated
The IPX4 rating means the enclosure is protected against splashing water from any direction. This allows installation in Bathroom Zone 1 where permitted, provided the fan is fitted and electrically supplied in accordance with current regulations.
Wall Kit Included
For through-wall installation, the fan is supplied with a 300mm telescopic wall tube and an external grille. Confirm the wall thickness and required duct arrangement before fitting.
Installation Information
Bathroom electrical work must be completed by a suitably qualified electrician. The installer should confirm the bathroom zone, isolation requirements, duct route and compliance with current wiring and ventilation regulations.
Window and ceiling installations may require additional components not included with the supplied wall kit.

Purchased 2 fans to reduce humidity in shed housing 2 freezers. Fitted a fan at each end. Needed to fit board to wall of shed to ensure the fan body was clear of shed end. Good instructions for first time user. Easy to fit and to provide power. 2 speed setting useful and humidity has dropped. Supplying fitting kit was a bonus.

Bought this fan to replace a broken Manrose one (which was noisy too). This was simple to fit and came complete with all the parts needed. Only grumble is that fitting the cover on was a bit awkward, as I had to turn the fan slightly to line up with the location in the wall opening of the wire for the previous fan.
It runs really quietly too.

Decent fan. Seemed best price for a fan with a sensor and to avoid having to reword a bathroom. Has worked well so far, really quiet , and you can adjust the time it will run.
