Axial type fans cause gas to flow through in an axial direction which is parallel to the shaft where the blades rotate, making the flow axial at exit and entry. Axial fans are designed to create a pressure difference and force which produces a flow through the fan.
Timer controlled
Extractor fans with a built-in timer control means that the fan will operate with the bathroom light switch and then overrun for a set amount of time to continue removing moisture from the air. This is great for steamy bathrooms, allowing you to turn the light off but continue with extraction for a short time.
Zone 1 Rated
IP rating stands for 'Ingress Protection rating' and this helps us determine what bathroom electricals can go in particular bathroom zones. An IP (Ingress Protection) number or code is used here in the UK to specify the environmental protection of enclosures around electronic equipment. These ratings are determined by specific tests.
These extractor fans can be fitted within Zone 1 as shown below.
Recessed wall & ceiling installation
These extractor fans can be installed through a wall or recessed giving you that extra bit of flexibility. They can also be installed as portrait or landscape.
Additional information:
High-efficiency long life motor rated up to 40,000 hours run time
Variable speed adjustment at installation
12dB noise levels (quieter than rustling leaves)
Extraction rate of 22 litres per second
IPX5 rated means the fan is protected from water jets that are projected by a nozzle (6.3mm) from any angle
Meets current Building Regulations Approved Document F and L
Suitable for wall, ceiling, window and panel mounting mounting
Arrived promptly and well packaged. Not being a professional, I found the Plumbworld website to be the easiest to actually identify the product which I needed to replace my existing, but defunct, Vent-Axia bathroom fan. The Plumbworld website had the clearest description and information.

The fan is continuous running and very quiet so it provides low level ventilation in the property, then boosts when the light is on to clear steam from a shower or bath.
Perfect for a flat or rental property.

I've now replaced all of my continuous running fans with the Vent-Axia. Incredibly quiet, near silent and no filter to clean unlike those I've replace.
