I have an existing Extractor that goes from the bathroom ceiling into the loft. I plan on taking this out and putting a new one on the wall going straight outside. I am wanting a quiet extractor fan that runs of its own switch. Not of a PIR or Timer with the lights. I will have a double switch on the outside wall one for the fan and the other for the lights.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good fan don't want to spend over £50. I have shopped around but am unsure on what I need to buy as I want to wire it into a switch.

If your switch has a live and a neutral at it then you can wire in any fan you like, if not you would have to take a neutral from somewhere safe and run a new switch wire. Probably easier to look for one with a pull switch on it. That said its more a matter of what you want. It tends to be that as the price of the fan goes up the fetaure set doe too. So a On/Off fan is cheapest followed by a timer, then pir then humidity etc. You just need to look for a quiet on/off fan. Of course if you havent got a opening window etc. etc. then if won't comply with BS I mean BR but thats up to you.

All the best.

The quietest fan would be an inline fan in the ducting in the loft away from the bathroom.

Thank you for your help I am going to inspect the existing fan and ducting in the loft and probably re duct and replace the fan the existing fan is a pull cord but has a main switch on the outside of the bathroom wall but it near the ceiling.
