Best Bathroom Exhaust Fans in India: 2021 Reviews

Updated by

Bathrooms are the most humid places in the entire house and without a good bathroom exhaust fan, there are high chances of mold and other fungus growth.

Not only that, damp and moist bathrooms often are ground zero for many dangerous and easily contaminable diseases. Thus it is really important to drive out odours and moisture out of the small room as soon as possible. An exhaust fan is specifically designed to do just that.

An exhaust fan works on the principle of suction. Opposite of any normal fan, these fans are pointed to outside of the room and when turned on, they rotate anti-clockwise. Thus they suck the odours and damp air from inside, push it outside while pulling in fresh air from outside to inside.

Choosing the best bathroom exhaust fan is a difficult job. On one hand, you need a fast fan to push out as much air as possible as fast as possible but these are way too noisy. But if you pick a silent operating fan, they may not be able to function in a better way. This article will help you make an informed choice on which one to pick.

After a detailed 48 hour research, our team has picked, reviewed and ranked the best available exhaust fans suitable for bathrooms in India. Also, we have included a “Buying Guide” at the end of the article that will help you understand our research and help you pick a better fan.
