Exhaust Fans – Breathe Good Air with Efficient Ventilation | One Stop Lighting

Efficient ventilation allows you to breathe a healthy indoor atmosphere, avoid mold, and have fresh air. Exhaust fans are responsible for clearing excess water, odors, and impurities from your home or business facility. One Stop Lighting offers a great variety of exhaust fans for bathroom applications, kitchen applications, office applications, and any other area that requires ventilation.

Why You Need an Exhaust Fan?

An exhaust fan enhances indoor air quality by removing unwanted air impurities. Some of the most important advantages of having an exhaust fan are outlined below:

1. Removes Excess Moisture

   Bathrooms and kitchens are susceptible to excess moisture, causing mildew and mold growth. An exhaust fan sucks out moisture, avoiding walls, ceilings, and fixtures from rotting.

2. Destroys Bad Odors

   Kitchen odors, smoke, and bathroom odors stay put in enclosed rooms. Exhaust fans efficiently eliminate such odors right away, rendering the house smelling fresh.

3. Enhances Air Flow

   Poor ventilation creates stagnant air and discomfort. Exhaust fans enhance air flow, making indoor air cozy.

4. Eliminates Airborne Pollutants

   Kitchen exhaust fans eliminate dangerous smoke, grease, and cooking scents. At work and industrial places, they reduce dust and chemical exposure.

5. Disables Structural Destruction

   Excessive humidity makes paint peel, wood warp, and hardware rust. An exhaust fan keeps excess humidity at bay, extending the life of your interiors.

Selecting the Best Exhaust Fan

Selecting the best exhaust fan depends on numerous variables like room size, airflow requirement, and even the installation. This is how to do it:

1. Room Size & Airflow Capacity (CFM)

   CFM or Cubic Feet per Minute is a ventilation rate measure of the fan.

   • Small rooms (<50 sq. ft.): 50-80 CFM
   • Medium rooms (50-100 sq. ft.): 80-150 CFM
   • Large rooms (>100 sq. ft.): 150+ CFM

2. Noise Levels (in Sones)
   • Ultra-silent fans: 0.3 - 0.9 sones (best suited for bedrooms and bathrooms)
   • Normal fans: 1.0 - 3.0 sones (good for kitchens and offices)
   • Industrial-power fans: 3.0+ sones (good for industrial applications)

3. Energy Efficiency
   • Employ Energy Star-approved products to consume less electricity.
   • Employ motion and humidity sensor fans to run on autopilot.

4. Exclusive Features
   • Built-in feature lights: Suitable for workspace spaces and showers
   • Humidity sensors: Automatically triggers whenever there is more moisture
   • Timers: Energy conservation in usage by automatic power cut-off of fan after time lapse

Mounting and Repair

• Mounting Techniques
  • Choose a venting location: Ceiling, wall, or window.
  • Employ ducting for best airflow: Connect to an external vent for improved efficiency.
  • Install correctly: Hire a certified electrician.

• Maintenance Tips
  • Clean fan blades every 3-6 months to eliminate dust accumulation.
  • Free flow vents to ensure maximum efficiency.
  • Replace old exhaust fans when they become noisy or less efficient.
