Swiftair Mixed FLow XFLO100T 100mm 4 inch Loft Mounted Inline Shower Ceiling Powerful Ventilation Bathroom Extractor fan Run On Timer Silent In-line Toilet Ventilator 220m3/hr

Our old fan had given up after 19 years' use and ratings looked good on this one, at a fair price so I ordered one. Compared to the incumbent fan, it is miles ahead on design, quality and effectiveness. The Fan unit sits on a very secure cradle, the latter secured by 4 screws and I fitted a plywood shelf between two joists before screwing the cradle down. The unit then fits snugly onto the cradle, which itself has two hinged arms which locate over the top of the unit before being screwed down at the non-hinged end. 10cm pipe fits snugly and I secured with two long cable ties. Wiring is simple, using L, N and Switched Live, the L allowing the unit to run on for between 1 and 20 mins or so (this adjustment is inside the wiring box so easiest to set it before you commence the work). There is then a two position switch on the top for Hi and Lo settings - labelling a bit confusing as to which setting is which but you will soon hear the difference by trying both. I would be kidding myself if I said it was quiet because it isn't but it is smooth and just placing your hand over the internal inlet vent proved just how powerful the suction was. Very impressed.

Only 3 days after installed on top of my unsuité in the attic and so far so good. I'm using the low setting and 1 minute of the timer. I kept the unsuité door and window shut, and I could see no steam on the mirror after 15 minutes of hot shower until I opened the shower door. The installation is fairly straight forward, the 4-points fixing holder which can be separates from the main unit, it made the job a lot easier. It also comes with wall plugs and screws for wall mounting. Overall, it performs very well, but in a bit of noisy side even though it is in low setting. It does sounds like a private mini jet is waiting for you from a distance. I'll update the review again in the next 6 months if the performance drops

Bought this to put into a passive air vent in our bathroom after shower upgrade. Nice extractor, works well, reasonably quiet so no complaints and it keeps the bathroom mist free on the high setting. There isn't much noticeable difference between low and high settings sound wise, but the bathroom does mist slightly on low, so it was put back to high. A worthwhile investment.

Great unit, more power and much quieter than my old unit. The only issue I had was the internal electrical connector was loose. I wired it up correctly but it wouldn’t work initially. After a bit of head scratching I wiggled the wires inside and it came to life.

Bought this to replace a five year old one that was giving up the ghost. Replacement failed to work- would have got another but no stock left.

Perfect

I bought this as a replacement to a kit I bought from Fans4less off ebay as I thought that I had blown the fan circuit board when I installed it. As it turns out I made a wrong connection on my first installation and my original fan works okay. I contacted Fans4less and they have allowed me to return this fan, but I will still add a review as it the exact same fan I have now in my loft. The fan has 2 speed settings and it has a timer function which once you connect the wiring correctly using a neutral, live and switched live it will carry on running when the fan is switched off. I have connected mine to the lighting circuit in my bathroom and I have the fan running about 10 mins after it is switched off. On full power I can hear the fan sucking the air out of my bathroom, on low power this is not as easy to hear. Great value fan would buy again if needed.

Quite impressed with this fan. Works very quietly at low speed and is even more effective at high speed. As a bit of a novice I needed some technical help and contacted the manufacturer who resolved my query effeciently. I would but this product again.
