Vortice, ventilation, fan

Vortice’s Punto Evo for shower and utility rooms has a specific fan power of less than 0.5 W/l/s, as required by the 2010 Building Regulations for System 1 fans. These fans also have a very low noise level of less than 21 dB(A).

Available as a 4 in unit for bathrooms and, coming soon, a 5 in model for utility rooms, these fans are quick and easy to install in a wall, ceiling or duct. They can be retrofitted to social housing as part of the Government’s upgrade of the housing stock.

There are five models — basic, 2-speed, advanced timer version, timed pull cord, timed humidity control and timed PIR with a delayed switch off from 3 to 20 min.
