Extractor Fans & Ventilation

The extractor fans and ventilation range brings together 100mm (4 inch) Knightsbridge extractor fans and the shutters and grilles that finish the wall outlet. Fans include the EX001T with an overrun timer, IP45 timer fans such as the EX1TWH, the EX1THWH with a humidistat, and LED backlit fans in matt white, stainless steel and matt black. Gravity shutters and fly-screen grilles come in black and in white for 100mm fans.
