Size guide of exhaust fans for bathroom

  1. Determine the room size: Measure the bathroom’s length, width, and height to calculate the volume. A larger bathroom requires a more powerful exhaust fan. Fans like Crompton fans are known for its efficiency, which ensures adequate ventilation.
  2. Calculate the required CFM (cubic feet per minute): The CFM rating indicates the fan’s airflow capacity. A standard guideline is 1 CFM per square foot of floor space. For example, a 50 square foot bathroom needs a fan with a minimum of 50 CFM. Larger bathrooms or those with high ceilings may require higher CFM ratings.
  3. Consider the duct size: The size of the exhaust duct influences the fan’s performance. Ensure that the duct size matches the fan’s specifications for optimal airflow. An improperly sized duct can reduce efficiency and cause noise.
  4. Check the noise level: Exhaust fans have a noise rating measured in sones. A lower sone rating means quieter operation. Modern exhaust fans, including tower fans, often prioritise quiet performance.
  5. Additional features: Look for features like humidity sensors, motion detectors, and built-in lights. These enhancements can improve functionality and convenience.

Additionally, compare fan prices to find a model that fits your budget while offering the desired features.

Brands like Crompton fans offer reliable and efficient options to meet your needs. Regular maintenance and proper installation further enhance the fan’s performance and longevity.
