Think About Using a Through Wall Fan For Great Ventilation

By Nathan Sprott


If you're agitated by over stuffiness or extraordinary coolness in some of your rooms, you'll be relieved to find quick fix by installing a through wall fan. Thru wall fans can be inserted into an 8 in. diameter hole on the wall of adjourning rooms. This way, you can force smooth air movement between rooms, rather than investing in another window air conditioner or another space heater. They're a great option for your next home remodeling project.

Thu wall fans will...

Expedite air movement from an AC unit or a fireplace to a room beside it.

Prompted ventilation onto rooms that may be smoky or stuffy.

Variable speed controller enables you to step up or step down the air movement.

Rotating grille permits you to adjust air movement direction.

Basic Information

It's common to have 1 single room that always seems to be too cold or too hot in the household. A through wall room-to-room fan can easily correct that. This multi-speed and in-wall AC system enables smooth transfer of cooled or heated air between rooms efficiently and quietly. It is cheap and consumed a load less energy compared with window AC unit or space heaters.

Selecting The Best Through Wall Fan System

1. Always pick a thru wall fan of obligatory size. Look at the home ventilation Institute (HVI) ratings labels on the fans to study how they fare vis noise and energy conservation (ideal selection would be a thru wall fan that makes minimum noise and has maximum energy efficiency). Check on the data re replacement parts and lubrication cycles (if not long-lasting). Try and go with a fan that has long survival expectation and be ready to spend more for all these qualities.

2. Only go for exhaust ductwork that's smooth (or low resistance). Ensure all joints are properly sealed and duct sections running thru unheated areas are decently insulated.

3. Don't forget to position the exhaust hood on somewhere less humid lest the moisture damages the external layer.

4. Ensure the fans are placed in safe distance from any heating appliance with chimney in order to avoid the unnecessary backdraft.

5. Continue with the installation of the controls supplied.
