Choosing the Right Extractor Fan
Bathrooms are notorious for being humid places causing damp and black mould, which can be difficult to deal with. The key to preventing this is through proper ventilation in your bathroom and throughout your home. Here's some information to help you pick the correct fan for your room.

Where should I install my fan?
There are electrical safety zones in a bathroom to consider when installing your extractor fan. In Zone 2 the IP rating of a product needs to be at least IPX4(IP44).
To maximise the effectiveness of the extractor fan within your bathroom it needs to be as close as possible to the source of the moisture but as far away from the source of replacement air as possible.
The duct leading from the vent should be as straight as possible to avoid sharp bends that can impede airflow.
