I'm after recommendations for a humidistat-fan, for a rented property with current condensation issues.
I'm looking to replace the kitchen and bathroom extractor fans with more beefy units with humidistat control. The bathroom should be an easy swap but I'm not so sure about the kitchen.
The current tenants are 3 adults and 3 medium-large dogs, so the probable cause is probably simply extra moisture generation than before.
As I expect the fan to be running regularly, and potentially almost continuously, quietness as well as throughput is important to prevent it being switched off as an annoyance.
The kitchen extractor has a 150mm duct at present, and I'm looking for something that will go into the same hole.
I'm looking at an Airflow - Maxivent-Eco 150mm Eco Fan, which has a low speed for "a little too humid", and a higher speed when very humid, and peaks at more than 250m^3/hr airflow.
Can anyone confirm that this unit is as quiet as alleged, or recommend an alternative?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
