The Vent-Axia 479086 VASF100TV is a premium 100mm ultra-quiet bathroom extractor fan designed to provide powerful intermittent ventilation with exceptionally low noise levels. Featuring installer-selectable power consumption of 1.7W or 7.5W, this intelligent fan allows electricians to choose between low and high airflow settings to suit the installation. Operating at just 12dB(A), it is recognised as one of the quietest domestic extractor fans available, making it ideal for bathrooms, en-suites, shower rooms and cloakrooms where quiet operation is essential.
The VASF100TV incorporates a fixed 15-minute overrun timer, allowing the fan to continue extracting humid air after the bathroom light has been switched off. This helps remove residual moisture, significantly reducing the risk of condensation, damp and mould. The fan also features a high-efficiency motor, integrated backdraught shutter and installer-selectable airflow settings, delivering excellent ventilation performance while keeping energy consumption to a minimum.
Suitable for wall, ceiling, panel or window mounting, the Vent-Axia 479086 is designed to blend seamlessly into modern interiors with its slim, discreet fascia. Its IPX5 rating makes it suitable for installation in bathroom Zones 1 and 2 (subject to BS 7671), making it an excellent choice for both new-build homes and refurbishment projects.

Three Reasons Customers Recommend This Product
1. Exceptionally Quiet
At only 12dB(A), the VASF100TV is among the quietest domestic extractor fans available, making it perfect for family bathrooms and en-suite installations where noise needs to be kept to a minimum.
2. Energy Efficient Without Compromising Performance
The installer can select either the 1.7W low-speed setting for economical background ventilation or the 7.5W high-speed setting for maximum extraction performance, providing excellent flexibility for different room sizes and ventilation requirements.
3. Effective Moisture Control
The built-in 15-minute overrun timer continues extracting humid air after the light has been switched off, helping to minimise condensation, reduce mould growth and improve indoor air quality.
Who Can Install This?
In the UK, the Vent-Axia 479086 should only be installed by a qualified electrician. As the fan connects directly to the fixed electrical installation and requires a permanent live, switched live and neutral for the timer function, installation must comply with the latest edition of BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations) and Building Regulations Part F (Ventilation).
Who Needs This Product?
The Vent-Axia VASF100TV is ideal for:
- Qualified electricians
- Ventilation specialists
- Bathroom installers
- Homeowners renovating bathrooms
- Landlords upgrading rental properties
- Property developers
- House builders
- Housing associations
- Hotels and guest houses
- Facilities managers
It is especially suitable for homes where quiet operation and effective moisture extraction are priorities.
Where Can This Be Installed and How Does It Work?
The Vent-Axia 479086 is suitable for installation in:
- Bathrooms
- En-suite bathrooms
- Shower rooms
- Cloakrooms
- WCs
- Utility rooms
- Small domestic washrooms
- The fan can be mounted on a wall, ceiling, panel or window and connects to a standard 100mm ducting system.
When the bathroom light is switched on, the fan starts automatically and extracts humid, stale air to the outside. Once the light is switched off, the 15-minute overrun timer keeps the fan running to remove any remaining moisture before shutting down automatically. During installation, the electrician selects either the 1.7W low-speed mode (6L/s, 21.6m³/h) or the 7.5W high-speed mode (24L/s, 86m³/h), allowing the fan to be tailored to the ventilation requirements of the room while maintaining whisper-quiet performance and low running costs.
