How Much Electricity Does A Bathroom Exhaust Fan Use?

October 6, 2020 by Robinson Leave a Comment

Bathroom exhaust fans, usually installed on your walls or ceilings, free your bathroom of unwanted smells, moisture, and mold.

How Much Electricity Does A Bathroom Exhaust Fan Use

Moreover, this smart technology is very cost-effective and efficient.

A simple fan’s electricity use may be comparable to that of a bulb. That’s pretty low, right?

However, your fan’s additional features, such as heaters, warmers, and lights, can increase your electricity bill. 

Fans With Features

Basic fans use power as low as 6 watts if the model is very efficient. These are great power savers, so you do not have to worry too much if the fan is on for too long.

Standard units may use about 60 watts of power, significantly higher than that used by energy-efficient models.

This cost is dependent on the energy efficiency of your fan’s model and its airflow calculated in cubic feet per minute.

On top of these, a fan with heater or lights has a higher power consumption.

For example, a standard exhaust fan with heater use around 1500 watts. However, this is the rate for when the heater is switched on.

That is why such fans have multiple switches to control settings and operations. 

Conclusion

The electricity costs of exhaust fans might seem high if they’re left switched on for too long. But to ensure costs are maintained at a low, turn fans off on time.
