Touch control or soft touch buttons
For more information, please visit HAIYANG.
We know that some people prefer touch control over buttons, and vice versa, that&#;s why we have developed a range of extractors that offer you a choice of control. With touch control, you have sensitive and responsive adjustments at your fingertips and a smooth, uninterrupted finish to your extractor design. If you go for the soft touch button control you can quickly switch between extraction settings, turn the lighting on and off and enjoy the ergonomically designed feel of each control.
Boost function
When you are frying something pungent or accidentally burn food, a quick 10 minute boost of extraction can be useful to remove smoke, smells and steam from the kitchen and get things back under control.
Clean air function
This clever little function can remove smells, allergens and pollution from your living space, keeping you and your family breathing a little easier. Once selected, the extractor will turn on automatically every 10 minutes and clear the room of unwanted air particles before switching off again.
Timer
Just because you have finished cooking, doesn&#;t mean that all the cooking residue, steam and smells have magically vanished from your kitchen the moment you switch off the hob. Leaving your extractor on for an extra 5 or 10 minutes will finish the job while you plate up and settle down for a romantic meal or some precious family time over dinner.
The last thing you need, when you are halfway through enjoying dinner, is to have to get up again to go and switch off the extractor and interrupt your meal. That&#;s why we have installed a clever timer on selected models to allow you to preset an allotted extraction time before the extractor automatically switches off and goes silent.
Filter saturation warning light
How do you know when your extractor filters need changing? If you have gone for recirculating extraction and have installed charcoal filters to purify the air that goes through your extractor, we recommend that you change the filters every 6 months; this is calculated on an average household&#;s usage. Some of our smartest models also include a filter saturation warning light that will indicate if you need a filter change for you, so you just need to swap the new ones in when the time comes.
Peripheral aspiration
This simply means that instead of the extractor pulling the air through just one or two vents above your cooking space, it uses the entire edge surface of the extractor to absorb grease, steam, smoke and smells, maximising efficiency.
Remote control
If you have installed a ceiling extractor, reaching the controls might not be as easy as you think. That&#;s why we&#;ve included a handy remote control that allows you to access the extractor&#;s settings from the kitchen table, cooking area or just while you are walking around the kitchen.
Extractor fans are a crucial system in any space that requires ventilation. These efficient devices extract moisture, smoke and odours from the air to create a clean and hospitable environment. However, some fans have a large structure which can take up too much space.

You can also add an energy-efficient LED bulb to maximise the functionality of your extractor. Some extractor fan/light models also come with remote control.
These 3-in-1 fans come with additional features, such as a built-in heat lamp that is a great addition to bathrooms. Heat lamps emit heat energy when you stand directly below them, making them a great choice for the winter season.
The process for selecting a ceiling extractor/light combo is the same as any other extractor fan. If you&#;re replacing an old extractor unit, you will need to remove the fan and measure the hole&#;s size. For new installations, you can easily cut a hole according to the fan&#;s size.
As the name suggests, ceiling extractor fans are mounted onto the ceiling either above the shower area or in the middle of the bathroom. These devices extract air upwards through the ceiling and expel it into the duct or roof cavity to be released outside. To use them effectively, ensure the installation meets bathroom codes and standards.
Ceiling mounted fans are one of the most common space ventilating methods. If you go with ceiling extractor fans, consider the airflow required. This is usually based on the bathroom&#;s size and how frequently it is used.
Next, you should also look at the hole size for easier installation. Checking the size is extremely crucial if you&#;re replacing an existing fan. Lastly, the fan needs to connect to a duct, so ensure this equipment has space.
Here are some more factors to consider when choosing a bathroom ceiling extractor fan:
Not all extractor fans are designed the same. Here are some important features that improve the efficiency of extractor fans.
This excellent feature ensures all moisture is removed from the air. The run on timer keeps the fan running even after it gets switched off. This timer keeps the fan operational until all the moisture has been extracted from the air.
Most shower extractor fans come with options but with varying time settings. Usually, this will range between 5 to 30 minutes.
Some building regulations state that an extractor fan should have a run on time of 15 minutes in spaces with no openable window. Consider this feature when choosing a shower extractor fan.
If you find an extractor fan with this setting, you can expect a smooth and quiet running experience. Most fans with this feature only have a noise level of around 14 decibels when working with their minimum rate of 15 litres per second.
However, it&#;s important to note that these fans often come with two-speed settings, with the low noise only happening on the lower setting. If this is a significant concern for you, make sure to test the noise level before purchasing.
Trickle ventilation allows the fan to provide a constant low level of extraction even when it's not in use. This feature only boosts the fan to maximum power when needed.
All shower rooms should always have a low level of background air extraction, so this is a perfect option for many. This feature is ideal for a small bathroom without a window or poor air filtration.
Extractor fans are electrical equipment, meaning most models will be fitted in bathroom zone 2. However, shower spaces often come under zone 1, so you need a low-voltage or SELV extractor model.
Not all extractor fans come with a delayed start timer, but it can be beneficial if you have it. This feature slows the fan&#;s operation within 2 minutes of switching on. So if you make a quick trip to the bathroom at night, your fan won&#;t make much noise.
Often consumers choose a powerful extractor based on its size. This feature is one way to determine whether you have an efficient fan.
When we&#;re talking about a fan&#;s size, we&#;re looking at the diameter of its blade and the spigot that&#;s placed into the ceiling or wall. This component will determine the ducting&#;s size and all the other grilles and accessories you will use.
Most extractor fans are designed in a standard 4-inch size, ideal in almost every domestic property; however, you also go for a 6-inch variety for larger rooms and kitchens.
Inline and Axial fans also come in a 5-inch option for specific installations. For bigger fans, go for inline models, which can go up to 8 inches.
The extraction is the most significant difference between these sizes, meaning the larger the blade, the more powerful it is. That said, almost any domestic bathroom can be adequately extracted with a 4-inch fan, so you don&#;t have to look for bigger options.
With so many options, you might wonder which is right for you. The best way to determine this is by knowing all the installation aspects. Here are a few ways to figure this out.
Room Size: Knowing the size of your rooms gives a general idea of the extraction you need to look for. To successfully extract the moisture, you need to know the volume of your room. You can calculate this by multiplying its length by width and height.
For example, the room might be 4m long x 2.5m wide x 2.8m high. This would give you a volume of 28 cubic metres. This means that one air change in the room for one hour would have an extraction rate of 28 cubic metres per hour.
Most building regulations require four air changes per hour for efficiency, so multiply this number by 4 to determine your required extraction. To better understand the extraction rate, you can convert this measurement into litres per second.
The Ducting Length: Most consumers might not know this, but your ducting affects the fan&#;s extraction rate. The air pressure inside the duct will slow down the air as it&#;s pushed away from the extractor fan. So keep this in mind when you choose your extractor fan.
The Bathroom Zone: Bathrooms are divided into zones based on how much water they come into contact with. All electrical equipment, such as light fixtures and bathroom extractor fans, have an IP rating that clearly defines their suitable zone for installation.
An IP rating defines the resistance against solid items and liquid/moisture. The higher the ingress number, the greater the level of protection. Use this measurement when placing your extractor fans. Zone 1 is the shower and the area vertically 2.25m above the bath.
If installing an extractor fan in the zone, look for an appliance with a minimum IP45 rating. If you want a powerful option, get an extractor fan with an IP65 rating.
Zone 2 is the area from 0.6m from Zone 1. This zone should have an IP rating of at least IP44. Lastly, Zone 3 requires no IP rating as there is no water exposure here.
With these factors, you determine the ideal size of your extractor fan.
These 3-in-1 fans come with additional features, such as a built-in heat lamp that is a great addition to bathrooms. Heat lamps emit heat energy when you stand directly below them, making them a great choice for the winter season.
