Replacing Extractor Fan

Extractor Fan

Hi all,

I currently have an expelair GXC6 fitted in my bathroom. The pull cord actuator has broken on this and the fan has become exteremely noisy. I would also like to change this and go for a lower profile extractor fan. The current hole diameter for the vent is 203mm according to the specification. I am finding it difficult to find an extractor fan with such a diameter. My quetion is that if I replace this fan with another model, does it matter if the required hole diameter of the new fan is smaller, as long as the overall fan covers the 203mm diameter ?

hope the above makes sense,

Many thanks.

Thought that was a 6inch fan [hence the 6 in the model number?] are you looking at overall dimensions?
