This new quality product complies with the Australian Building Regulations requirement that all bathroom and kitchen ventilation MUST be ducted to exhaust to the outside. It can be used in new homes, renovations or retrofitted in existing homes.This exciting new bathroom or kitchen ducted ceiling exhaust product was designed based on some of the principles of high performance turbo aeroplane engines and proven principles of efficient water irrigation systems. Such features include the ‘vortex’ grill and ‘aerofoil’ shaped fan blade, thus maximising its efficiency and effectiveness.
"I fitted one of your ‘turbo-inspired’ Exhaust Fans into our ensuite about 3 weeks ago. This bathroom used to get so very hot that I could hardly breathe in there. After fitting your system, the same bathroom is much cooler. I am now planning to install another unit in our main bathroom. The ‘turbo-inspired’ Exhaust Fan certainly works."
Highly Efficient Ventilation System that ducts to the outside
Under the Building Code of Australia, for new homes it is illegal to duct air from the home into the roof space. For existing homes it is simply unhygienic and encourages insects especially cockroaches and other pests to live and multiply.
This quality Australian-made product ducts air from areas in your home to the outside. It is supplied with flexible ducting and an insect-proof outlet that can be installed in eaves or in walls. The reason mould grows is usually poor ventilation. So by improving ventilation by efficiently removing wet and steamy air, you will reduce or eliminate the growth of mould.
This ventilation system is ideal for:
- Bathrooms
- Kitchens
- Laundries
- Hallways
At last there is an ‘out of the box’ effective ducted ‘ventilation’ system on the market for such rooms, for both new homes, renovations or for the easy retrofitting in existing homes. Additionally, with the need for all of us to reduce our energy consumption, it is important to stop heat gain or heat loss from living areas of your home into or from the roof space. By installing this smart ventilation system, you will reduce the heating or cooling loads, and therefore have lower energy bills (gas or electricity).
This is a well designed, resolved and manufactured complete ‘high performance’ ducted ceiling ventilation system, which looks like a 'Top Hat'. It has a unique integrated ‘draught + vermin’ blocking feature or ‘wings’, that automatically and effectively seals off the ducting, when it is not in operation. This both stops down drafts as well as cockroaches and pests from entering in your home or office.
This quality product has been highly engineered, designed, tested and ‘quality made’ in Australia. To assess them or to buy them, they are on display in the dedicated Smart Products Showroom at The Building Centre, Suite 209, 410 Elizabeth Street Surry Hills in Sydney near Central station.

I just wanted to congratulate your firm on a great product. We currently rent a brick veneer house with ceiling insulation only and wooden floors on stumps. It is a nice house but very cold in the winter. I have installed 2, one in kitchen and the other in the ensuite, and they work very effectively. I noticed an immediate increase in temperature and decrease in the heating.
Thanks again
Regards, P K Victoria
Just thought I would drop you a quick email to let you know that we installed the first Draught Blocking Cap in a client’s bathroom yesterday. The clients love it so much that they want another one in the kitchen. It’s a great product. Well done.
