Visually and acoustically quiet it will attract many fans!
It’s no surprise that, according to recent research from leading British fan manufacturer Vent-Axia, householders want to relax in quiet comfort in their homes.
What is surprising though is it is not just acoustic noise that sets household nerves on edge, visual noise is also an irritant that consumers would like to banish from their bathrooms. In fact, recent data reveals that consumers prefer bathroom fans which are visually unobtrusive.
As a result Vent-Axia has redesigned its popular Silent Fan to offer ‘visual silence’ as well as acoustic silence. No longer seen as just a functional item, households are now demanding that bathroom fans blend discreetly into their interior décor.

The report also revealed that 55% of people questioned cited fan noise as the most annoying thing in the bathroom.With increasingly busy lives and many people having to endure almost constant noise at work, a peaceful home to retreat to is a priority for most homeowners.
