Fans are noisy, bulky, pushing air back and forth to no avail - they have long been in the past with the advent of air conditioners. But you can’t hang an air conditioner in the bathtub, and the need to ventilate the bathroom, unfortunately, has not remained in the past. She continues to be an urgent problem in many apartments. That is why many manufacturers of fans, including silent, having worked on the design, improving the design and principle of operation, created special silent fans for the bathroom.
Until some time we do not think about how the ventilation works in the bathroom and whether it exists at all? But the first precursors appear, by which we can judge about poor air ventilation, and now we are racking our brains on how to solve this problem. What, first of all, indicates that you need to install a silent fan in the bathroom?
Fungus and mildew prevention
If your corners of the bathroom began to darken, and after them - the ceiling, walls, a raid of unknown origin appeared on the taps and the shower pipe - this is the surest sign that you should go to the store for a fan. After all, this means that humid air does not ventilate at all in the room. The explanation for this may be different:
- clogged ventilation;
- its absolute absence (if during repair due to negligence or stupidity, you patched it up);
- weak draft in the ventilation pipe.
Dries drops of water on the walls and mirror
If the walls are not moldy yet, but the trickles of water always flow down the walls or mirrors, then the next step, if you do not install a fan in time, will become a fungus.
Removes unpleasant odor
It can have a different nature (the smell from the sink, from the drain of water in the bathroom, odors) and even disappear with time. But if for a long period you observe that it does not erode, then ordinary ventilation does not cope with it. Of course, the bathroom is not the place where you spend a lot of time, however, I want to ensure that even the short period when you are there does not cause discomfort. Silent bathroom fans will also save you from unpleasant odors.
Stale air and its weathering
The air may not even be humid, but heavy, as if "not to breathe," as they say. Again, the reason for this is the lack of ventilation, that is, the air does not circulate, it stagnates. The fan blades will be able to make it “move”, which (if you choose it well) will not even create unnecessary noise.
Prevents “aromas” and dust from neighbors
You don’t even know which is better - the presence or absence of ventilation. After all, in its absence, all your smells remain with you, and in its presence - neighborly ones are also added to them. If you choose a fan model with a non-return valve, you will be saved from fine litter, dust and smells from the neighbors in the riser.
Silent Fan Models
The range of silent fans that are on the market is quite wide.
With humidity sensor
Such a model will significantly save your energy, because the fan will turn on / off automatically. Its start and end will depend on the humidity that the sensor determines. Thus, he himself will know when to ventilate the room and when to stop.
With check valve
A return air flow will not be possible if a check valve is present in the fan design.Not only air, but also dust, small particles and other rubbish, smells from other apartments will not penetrate the premises of your bathroom. It is especially recommended to install such a model in apartment buildings.
With timer
By turning on such a fan, you do not need to worry about forgetting to turn it off and in the end they will bring you a breathtaking electricity bill. Now the optimal solution between energy saving and good ventilation is found! And this is a fan with a timer.
It will turn off independently after a certain, set time after switching on.
With motion sensor
Such a fan reacts to mechanical movements, and therefore it will work when someone is in the bathroom, and will automatically turn off when there is no one in the room.
Its installation is advisable, since ventilation will occur when you bathe, take a shower, and the percentage of humidity rises accordingly.
Silent Fan Overview
Silent Fan Benefits:
- Indisputable quality. The products of this manufacturer comply with all international quality standards.
- Stylish design. Among the Silent models, you can choose both standard, classic options, and stop your attention on fans of different colors, which will suit the most different styles and design of bathrooms.
- Silent work. You can’t talk about complete silence, but the noise level during operation of these fans does not exceed 35 decibels, which is quite quiet. This is achieved by isolating the engine from the housing.
- Design excellence. It seems that the creators of the Silent line thought out their brainchild so thoroughly that it was no longer possible to do better.
- Moisture-proof performance. A noticeable plus for the fan in the bathroom, if he will not be “afraid” of water getting on him. Silent fans in this sense are reckless brave men!
The basis of the foundations in this series are the following models - Silent 100 CS, Silent 100 CMS, Silent 100 CRS, Silent 100 CHS. Derivatives are already being developed from them that complement the basic options with a palette of shades and various functions.
- Silent 100 CS is not equipped with sensors. It is rather such an economical option from luxury fans. Its diameter is 100 mm, productivity - 95 m3 / h. The noise level is low - 26.5 dB. The maximum temperature at which it will function is + 400 C. Dimensions - 158x158 mm. Pressure - 50 Pa.
- Silent 100 CMS is weaker in power than the above model. Its capacity is 80 m3 / h. The noise level is the same and it is also equipped with a check valve. But it belongs to the type with a lace switch, unlike the previous one. In principle, if the number of people living in the apartment is not so large, its capacity is enough for normal ventilation of the bath. So you can safely take it!
- The Silent 100 CRS is similar in performance to the very first model described above. It has the same capacity (95 m3 / h), but it is already equipped with a timer. Accordingly, its cost is higher.
- Silent 100 CHS - model with integrated sensor. The rest is completely identical with the first model.
