According to an independent study commissioned by Xpelair, the ventilation manufacturer, around 14.5 million UK adults are affected by having a noisy bathroom fan in their home, with over 4.5 million adults having been woken up or kept awake as a result.<\/p>\n

In late 2014, Xpelair launched the first fan in the Simply Silent family of domestic ventilation solutions with near-silent running.<\/p>\n

Just over a year since bringing the first product in the range to market, Simply Silent now boasts a portfolio of over 70 units.<\/p>\n
