Envirovent SIL100 Silent-100 Axial Silent Extractor Fan Axial 100 mm / 4 Inch Timer Model (White)

Happy days I've found this extractor fan when was looking to replace an old one in the bathroom, that was as "effective" new - same as dead. After testing one - got myself a second one. Good stuff: 1. It is easy to install, no rocket science, most people will be able to fit it with a bit of attention. Obviously I won't recommend self-install if you are not much into safety (cutting electricity safely and not working with live wires (!) or just don't feel comfortable to do so. 2. It's quiet indeed. No, don't expect it to be completely silent as it's simply impossible for something that has meaningful extraction power, which I bet we all need from an extraction fan :). But it is not loud! I am a light sleeper and can definitely fall asleep with it working right against the wall. 3. Effective and extracts decent amount of moisture! I definitely felt a big difference here in comparison with the old one. Now, I'm not taking a shower anymore in a cloud of fog and my fire alarm in landing does not go off once I open the door after showering (because of excess moisture rushing to it). Considering it also consumes just 8 watts - yes please. That's another reason why I've got two of them. TO NOTE: - Beware of air depletion (make-up air)! If something is extracting air - there has to be a replacement of air coming from somewhere. So if you have everything tightly closed, doors, windows, etc. - eventually you get reduced extraction flow and correspondingly efficiency. So if possible, consider not closing the door fully, or leaving the window slightly open. This by the way applies to any extractors and is just a showcase that this one actually has decent (96 cubic meter/hour (!) extraction power not just on paper! - If it exits in your loft or attic - make sure it goes through a pipe straight outside, through the roof or whatever setup you have. Don't leave it just like that, trust me, if it sucks air from your bathroom - it will fill effectively with moisture any room to which it connects :) you won't want clear bathroom but an attic full of mould. Beside all above, it looks good, feels sturdy for what it is and despite maybe not being the cheapest - provides great value for your money. Recommended it to my friends and can responsibly recommend it to you. Hope it helps. Stay well & Cheers!

This is the 2nd time ordering this product. Got for our old house, very quiet. Just moved and replaced both fans as they were really noisy. These are a dream, so quiet and a good price too.

I have an ensuite bathroom with no window. Which is therefore prone to condensation and of course smells tend to linger....! The extractor in situ wasn't really pulling its weight, so I spent some time researching the options. This one appeared to offer a good balance between performance and cost, and to be fair it does. It's definitely shifting more air and moisture - I can feel a stronger flow at the duct exit point outside, and the walls and mirror both clear more quickly than in the past. And I'm pretty sure that smells are shifting more quickly too. I think it's a good buy, but it's no quieter than the old one. To be fair it's not at all noisy - but it's not silent. It was also very simple to fit, removal and replacement took about 15 minutes. I definitely recommend it.

Powerful and quiet fan. I first bought one stone a year ago when our ancient noisy bathroom fan packet up. It was easy to fit, very quiet when running, and much better at clearing steam after a shower than our old fan. No problems at all in the first year. Recently I have bought two more as we had two other fans that were unpleasantly noisy - it's so nice to have no noisy fans any more!

this was an exact replacement of one that i bought 10 years ago. i had a bathroom refurbishment, so it was removed, I cleaned it. with the intention of reusing it, but when it was replaced, it sounded like a rocket about to take off. i then bought this one, which is the exact same one and its so quiet that you have to concentrate to hear it. i recommend fully!

I needed a quiet replacement fan for my downstairs WC, this fan is perfect, the old fan wasn’t very effective and I used to leave it turned off because of the racket it made! I could hear it in every other room and it used to vibrate the floor upstairs! Then I read up about the Envirovent Silent 100, thought I’d give it a go, and it really is exactly what they advertise. In the room it isn’t silent, you can hear a little motor noise but mainly air movement, in all honestly I wouldn’t expect any fan to be completely silent unless it’s turned off! but this is very unobtrusive and much much quieter than the previous fan. Once outside the room and the door is closed I literally cannot hear it at all!! When the house is completely silent you can just hear it outside the door but apart from that there is no vibration or anything coming from the fan and this is perfect! I have the timer set for 15 minutes and due to the increased performance this is more than enough to clear the air in that room and get rid of any smells!! I have my fan running through 3 metres of duct to a vent outside and I can now feel a steady flow of air coming out of the vent unlike the old fan which did almost nothing! Well impressed and would highly recommend this product, I shall certainly be buying another one to replace a noisy utility room fan Edit! Just bought a second fan for the utility room, although this one seems slightly noisier, I think that is a fault of the house and not the fan! I have set this timer for the maximum time which seems to run for just over 30 minutes, good rate of extraction and is blowing well out of a vent after going through 3.5 metres of flexible ducting so very well impressed!

Nice quiet fan I am pleased with it's performance. At first I couldn't get it to switch on having checked it was wired up correctly but thanks to another reviewer on here the solution is to create a bridge between the Live and Switched Live terminals. Excellent Fan easy fit replacement great value by a good brand.

I bought this product early on in 2021. It's has stopped working this week after just over 5 years in use, so it seemed a good time to write a review. Aesthetically it was absolutely fine, it's white plastic and inoffensive. Not much more to say on that front! Installation was simple enough. The cable entry point is on the bottom left hand side of the back plate as you look at it when installed, and the termination block is on the bottom right side of the unit - an important consideration if your existing wiring is relatively short, like mine. There is sufficient room on the back plate to drill out an access hole closer to the termination block (which I had to do), but of course this would void your warranty, and preclude the item from return if found to be unsuitable. The fan remained in working order throughout, and was efficient at clearing steam and moist air from my bathroom. I had connected it to my lighting circuit, so it came on with the bathroom light and turned off after a delay (which you can amend yourself). The fan was very quiet to begin with, which was great. It was the main reason I swapped out my old unit. For the last 2-3 years there has been a gradual but noticeable increase in operating volume, to the point where I have felt bad when having guests stay over, as the fan is audible from the adjacent bedroom and throughout my flat. I have disassembled the unit, cleaned it and lubricated the motor, but it has not fixed the problem, so I now need to replace it. It's lasted 5 years, but the gradual noise increase has been a concern. Were it not for the issues with the increase in volume, I'd have been happy to replace the unit like-for-like.
