AXP In-Line Bathroom Fans

Description

AXP In-Line Bathroom Fans are ideal for residential and light commercial bathroom ventilation applications.  The quiet and efficient backward-curved motorized impeller is capable of developing significant pressure while the in-line configuration simplifies installation, saving time and money.

AXP in-line bathroom fans incorporate a durable UV resistant plastic housing. Additionally, they are available in duct diameters from 4″ thru 12″ with airflow capacity up to 837 cfm.  Because AXP fans are capable of moving airflow through long or complex duct runs, they provide an ideal solution for areas that are difficult to heat or cool.

How much airflow is required?

The following recommendations follow minimum guidelines published by the Home Ventilating Institute (HVI):

• Bathroom less than 100 square feet: – 1 cfm per square foot of floor area. A minimum of 50 cfm is the required ventilation rate.
• Bathroom larger than 100 square feet: – To calculate the proper ventilation rate, add the cfm requirement for each fixture; toilet 50 cfm, shower 50 cfm, bathtub 50 cfm, jetted tub 100 cfm.

Note: For proper sizing, the static pressure (SP) needs to be calculated. For typical applications, you may read from the 0.2” SP column for a selection.

Helpful Tips

• Use insulated duct in unheated spaces.
• Control air volume with a variable speed control.
• Sound leaves in a duct fan installation decrease as the distance of the fan from the intake grille increases. Five feet is usually adequate.
• Rigid duct tends to echo fan noise. To reduce sound levels, use flexible insulated duct.
• Always consult local building codes prior to selecting product and materials.

When it comes to choosing the right duct, people often ask, “What is the best duct for bathroom ventilation?” While there isn’t necessarily one absolute right choice, many times the best option is the flexible insulated duct.  Learn more in our blog posting: what-is-the-best-duct-for-bathroom-ventilation.
