FAQs

Where are the most important rooms in which to install an exhaust fan?

At a minimum, you’ll want to install an exhaust fan in your bathroom, kitchen and laundry room. In the bathroom, exhaust fan installation is crucial to prevent a buildup of moisture, which can lead to mould. Installing an exhaust fan in the kitchen keeps surfaces free from grease when you’re cooking and ensures that the smell of food does not linger in the air. In a laundry room, an exhaust prevents condensation buildup from the water in your washing machine and dryer. A good ventilation system is doubly important in a European laundry, as these are typically smaller and windowless with limited natural ventilation.

We strongly recommend enlisting a qualified commercial or residential technician to install your exhaust fans primarily for safety reasons. Using the wrong tools can cause fire hazards or eventuate in needless damage to your property. An electrician can also help you assess the best spots in your commercial or residential property to install exhaust fans to maximise their moisture and odour-removing efficiency. 

Approved Electrix’s certified exhaust fan technicians also perform installation according to all relevant Victorian regulations as stated by the Victorian Building Authority. Exhaust fans need to be installed in such a way that the contaminated air they discharge does not harm the structural integrity of your and surrounding properties. Certain manufacturers will also require their exhaust fans to be installed by certified technicians to keep their unit’s warranty intact. 

A fully functional, modern exhaust fan is essential to a proper home or commercial ventilation system. Without a proper exhaust fan, you run the risk of moisture, bacteria, mould, foul odours and more accumulating in your property’s interiors. An upgraded exhaust fan also eliminates the risk of sick building syndrome. Constantly future-proofing your exhaust fan also saves you on energy expenses, as most modern models switch on and off automatically depending on the moisture levels in the room.

Exhaust fan installation by electricians at Approved Electrix should take no longer than 1-3 hours, depending on factors like the type of exhaust fan to be installed, the state of your current domestic or commercial ventilation system and the extent of electrical work that needs to be done during installation. 

If you would like a more accurate estimate of how long an exhaust fan installation would take for your specific domestic or commercial property, you can reach out to a member of the Approved Electrix team through our website.

For optimal performance, exhaust fans should be placed close to moisture or pollutant sources:

  • Bathrooms: Near showers and bathtubs to remove moisture and prevent mould growth.
  • Kitchens: Above cooktops to eliminate grease, smoke, and odours.
  • Laundries: Near washing machines and dryers to control condensation.
  • Garages: Near vehicle entry points to remove fumes and maintain air quality.
  • Placement Too Far from Moisture Sources: Fans should be close to areas generating moisture for effective removal.
  • Improper Ventilation Paths: Fans must vent directly outside without obstructions to maximise airflow.
  • Ignoring Room Size: Always select fans with the right capacity based on room dimensions for adequate ventilation.
