Kitchen suitable Kitchens without a cooker hood have to have an extractor fan with a flow rate of 60l/sec or above, and most 100mm or 125 mm fans are lower than this. With excellent high extraction rates of over 60l/sec, this extractor fan is ideal for use in a kitchen environment. Switch operated These extractor fans are operated using the light switch for your bathroom. A simple flick of the switch and excess humidity from a shower or long bath can be extracted until you turn the light back off. For extended extractor you may want to consider one with a timer or humidistat.Interchangeable control modules – sold separately The best thing about an Airflow iCON extractor fan is the customisation aspect. You can simply change the module for a pull cord, a timer, a timer and humidistat or a timer and motion sensor, ensuring you always have the right extraction for your bathroom. The different modules are available as add-ons when you add the iCON to your basket.Opening Iris Airflow are best known for their top-quality extractor fans and thanks to eye-catching ‘opening iris’ shutter feature found on this fan, it has become an essential classic in any bathroom.

It’s needed to ensure a minimal build-up of moisture in the room due to cooking steam, reducing mould and grime in damp areas. This fan will extract an incredible 78 litres per second, so you can relax that your kitchen is fully covered.IPX4 Rating This product has a rating of IPX4 which means it is protected from water splashes from any angle.Axial  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.
