SV160

Multi-port Bathroom Suite Ventilator

 

Traditional bathroom fans have a reputation for making too much noise while not adequately ventilating the bathroom.  In most cases the lack of ventilation effectiveness is due to long duct connections and exterior vent caps that restrict airflow.  In addition, placement of the fan or exhaust grille in the bathroom is very important.  If the fan is installed centrally in the bathroom, a large percentage of the exhaust air is the air that just entered the bathroom.  By locating the fan or the exhaust grille of a central fan directly over the shower or tub, or in the water closet enclosure, the humidity and odor is removed quickly before spreading to the rest of the room.

 Designed for today's large master bath suites, the SV160 solves typical bathroom noise problems by virtue of its remote mounting and acoustically insulated case, assuring almost silent operation. The SV160 is designed to operate at higher static pressure than ceiling mounted fans, to overcome the resistance of long duct runs and exterior vent hoods.  With 160-200 CFM of total air flow capacity, depending on duct resistance, the SV160 addresses effectiveness by ventilating the bathroom/bath suite evenly and completely. The housing has two 40-50 CFM ports and one more powerful 80-100 port recommended for the area with the highest moisture level--normally the shower or jet spa area.  Of course, it can also be used to ventilate two small and one large bathrooms.

The SV160 is durable, utilizing one of the most technologically advanced and quiet operating motors available. The external rotor motor offers years of energy efficient service requiring only 80 watts of power. The motor is totally enclosed-- moisture can't cause a problem. The motor has lubricated ball bearings that are sealed for life and require no maintenance.  The motor is suitable for continuous duty and may be operated with a solid state motor speed control.

The SV160 is versatile. It's unique manifolded end can be removed and re-oriented to ease duct attachment. The unit is small enough to fit above a drop ceiling or in a second floor cavity.
