We just launched our Bathroom Ventilation Calculator and Visualizer.

Users enter the room dimensions and then adjust airflow. As the CFM is raised, a ventilation quality meter and the ‘fog level’  change.  These indicators  allow the user to visualize the level of ventilation.

AirScape bathroom exhaust kits are available now!

You can have it all….. great air movement and low noise. Traditional bathroom fans are noisy and don’t move enough air to properly ventilate the bathroom area. AirScape bath kits include high velocity inline fans that are remotely located using acoustic ductwork to minimize fan noise.

This is a brief reminder of the proper location for wiring the wall switch to your AirScape control board. We have noticed that sometimes people, even licensed electricians, wire the wall switch to the auxiliary actuator terminal (red crossed out circle). Wiring at this incorrect location will blow the 3 amp circuit breaker on your unit and possibly damage your control board. Regardless of your experience level we recommend looking at the wiring diagram in the instruction manual before wiring the wall switch. The correct wiring location is indicated by the green circle with check mark.

Did you find your install particularly challenging because of your attic configuration? Did you have a unique install that went beyond the traditional install method? Or are you just proud of your DIY project? If you answered yes to any of these questions we would love to see your installation photos. Hopefully, your unique or challenging install will help someone overcome an obstacle in their installation or just show them what’s possible beyond the norm. With that being said, we are starting an ongoing blog series on unique and/or challenging installs. This series is open to both home owners and installers.
