Fans for the bathroom.
Let's define for the beginning, whether it is enough good hood performs its functions in the bathroom. To do this, with the window open and the door to the bathroom, light a match and bring it to the vent. If the flame is inclined towards the duct, then the natural ventilation is working properly. Do the same with the door closed and the window. If not, it is required to check the entire airway for clogging. When we deal with natural ventilation, we can go on to consider the issue of forced ventilation. The fact is that more often now in homes there are new metal-plastic windows and doors that have increased tightness. Because of this, the performance of natural perfume decreases and it is necessary to resort to forced extractions in the bathroom. Especially if the natural does not comply with the norms of SNIP.
Choose from a variety of models a more suitable bathroom fan? After all, it is necessary that this device not only served longer, but also did not create conditions for discomfort in the bathroom. For this, it is necessary to follow certain rules:
- The degree of protection of the electrical appliance must be at least IP 34.
- Noise should not exceed a level of 35 dB.
- provide fresh air ventilation by ventilation 5-8 times in one hour.
Types of hoods in the bathroom.
Since in the bathroom there is mainly a moist environment and there is a risk of water entering the fan, when choosing an appliance, you need to pay attention to the splashproof option. The most popular is a fan with a non-return valve that blocks the return of air to the room. The next option is a fan with a hygrostat, a very handy thing that turns on when the moisture level rises. Even more convenient is that it is equipped with a motion sensor, so it will do everything for you.
The most common axial fan is mainly used in small rooms less than 15 cu.m, very easy to install, just inserted into the hole in the hood. He does quite well with his work, but he makes a loud noise. Where to buy a completely noiseless fan for the bathroom? I will say frankly, there are no silent fans at all, they all make more or less noise. But there are options to reduce yourself unnecessary dB.In the ventilation shaft, you need to install additional materials that will absorb excess sound, and install a sound attenuator behind the electrical appliance.
The most noisy is the centrifugal fan, but the most productive one. The diametric fan has the weakest performance. Centrifugal is designed for large rooms, it is a turbine with a snail. They are placed in ventilation ducts, the length of which exceeds five meters. It is considered the most productive and the most silent, but the most expensive. Having considered all the options, you can easily select the exhaust fan for the bathroom, which will provide comfort and comfort to your room. Will give a high-quality air exchange, will provide protection from excess moisture.
