Xpelair C4TSR Extractor Fan with Timer 4" 100mm Simply Silent Range - White

I recently installed the Xpelair C4TSR Extractor Fan with Timer in my bathroom, and I’ve been really impressed with its performance so far. This fan is part of Xpelair’s Simply Silent range, and it definitely lives up to the name—it’s incredibly quiet, even on the higher speed setting. The Ghost Air Movement technology they use really makes a difference; you barely notice it’s running, which is a huge upgrade from my old, noisy fan.Installation was straightforward, thanks to the Twist & Click fascia design. I managed to fit it into the ceiling without too much hassle. It comes with both square and round baffle covers, which is a nice touch—I went with the round one to match my bathroom’s look, but it’s great to have the option. The adjustable timer is another standout feature. I set it to run for about 15 minutes after a shower, and it clears out steam and humidity like a champ. You can tweak it anywhere from 30 seconds to 30 minutes, so it’s super flexible depending on your needs.The fan has two speed settings (15 or 21 l/s), which you choose during installation. I opted for the higher one since my bathroom gets pretty steamy, and it handles the job well with an extraction rate of 54-76 m³/hr. It’s powerful enough to keep condensation at bay, yet it stays quiet—maxing out at 29 dB, which is barely noticeable. Plus, it’s energy-efficient, using just 6.3-7 watts, so I don’t feel guilty letting it run a bit longer.A couple of minor gripes: the instructions could be clearer, especially for setting the timer and speed. I had to double-check online to make sure I got it right. Also, while it’s great for general bathroom use, it might not be the absolute best for super high-humidity spaces with no windows—though that’s more about my setup than the fan itself.Overall, the Xpelair C4TSR is a stylish, quiet, and effective extractor fan that’s perfect for most bathrooms. The 2-year guarantee gives me peace of mind, and it looks sleek in white. If you’re after a reliable, near-silent fan that’s easy to install and does the job, I’d definitely recommend giving this one a try!

Perfect, quiet looks good, 2 surrounds circular and square with curved off edges. Little fiddly to switch the plates over / access the wires. Does feel good quality

The media could not be loaded. Works well, easy to fit and comes with circle or square front plate. We fitted the circle one as shown on the pictures. I have set the fan speed to high as we get a lot of condensation from the shower as it’s a small bathroom. This can be set to low speed which is quieter. The fan has a timer built in and cuts off at a time set by me when can be set to a maximum 30min run time after turning the lights off.Very competitively priced, previously we spent double that for the quietest fan on the market with not a great deal of difference. This does seem to push more out. Overall happy.

Easy replacement for expired unit, and a lot quieter (no longer wakes whole house if used at night...) Looks much nicer than the old one too. Has a range of time/speed options, but within days I'd set it to max time/max speed with two teenagers in the house.

At the beginning it’s great nice and quiet but the longer it runs it gets louder. Also after installing it trying to take off the front is a mission.

It was easy to replace my original unit with this one. I had to extend the wiring as the connection was in a different place to the first unit. There is a horizontal line that you need to be aware of, fitting the unit with this in mind enables the back flaps to operate properly. I did originally try to fit it rotated so that the wiring fitted, but not only did the back flaps hang open, the outer cover (with name) was at an angle! Being a little OCD that would have annoyed me! I bought the timer version, it needs two power sources, One from the light source and the other from the fan isolation switch. It will stay on for about 30 minutes (Time is adjustable) once the light is turned off. The unit has a 2 speed jumper adjustment, I have mine set to high. It isn't silent but not extremely loud either! The unit comes with 2 covers, square or round, I used the round one, It feels a little fragile the first time I twisted it to remove the cover, but after a couple of fitments it hasn't broke, so must be fit for purpose. I am happy with this purchase, it is definitely better than the unit that came with the house (New build!).

Easy to install does the job it's designed for quiet enough for a bathroom.v

It does the job, it is silent and effective.
