replace electric bathroom window fan with 18cm diameter

[mortyone]

Hi everyone,

I would like to replace the very dated (and faded yellow) electric extractor fan in my bathroom window with something modern and quieter.

The diameter of the hole in the double-glazed window appears to be 18cm across.

I've looked online but can only see 10cm extractor fans - is there some sort of holding unit I could use to support these modern fans in the 18cm diameter?

Any help anyone could give would very much appreciated.

Thank you

Look for 6inch window fan. Some (like THIS ONE ) need a 184mm dia hole.

Edit. Here's another.

Looks like 184mm 7¼") is a standard window hole size for fans.

Suits you? Ohhh. ¼

Same one - bit cheaper.

It seems the bigger 6 inch fans are mostly classified as kitchen fans and a lot noiser than than the smaller 100cm fans, and options like back-shutters and humidity control is a bit limited.

If I wanted to go for a 100mm bathroom fan, short of replacing the glazing to have a smaller hole than the current 18cm diameter, is there any window kit that would allow a 100mm fan to be installed into the 180mm hole?

Thanks again for your help
