How to replace bathroom exhaust fan grille?

Hi everyone,

 

Ceiling exhaust fan grille broke but can't find anywhere the same model. Anyone knows where I can get this?

 

Otherwise, I've see this option at Bunnings:https://www.bunnings.com.au/blauberg-125mm-white-round-ceiling-grille_p4420518

Anyone knows if it works as a replacement? I couldn't find information whether it's a "clip-on" like my previous one.

Re: How to replace bathroom exhaust fan grille?

Hello @qpeak 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about replacing your bathroom exhaust grill. 

 

Replacing a broken bathroom exhaust fan grille can be straightforward if you find a compatible model. If your current grille has a "clip-on" feature, it's crucial to check that the replacement is also clip-on, as models vary in attachment methods. The Blauberg 125mm White Round Ceiling Grille that you mentioned may work, but ensure it fits your fan's dimensions and attachment style. If you're uncertain about compatibility, make sure to take measurements or consult with a team member at the store.

 

However, should you consider replacing your bathroom exhaust fan, the store has several options. Wall or ceiling-mounted fans, such as those from HPM or Ventair, are straightforward replacements. For enhanced ventilation, ducted fans vent air directly outside, ideal for windowless bathrooms. Inline fans, installed in the roof cavity, operate more quietly, with brands like Blauberg offering models for larger spaces or multiple rooms.

 

For added warmth, consider a heat and fan combo unit, which combines an exhaust fan with heating lamps, perfect for cooler months. Just ensure the fan’s size matches your ceiling cutout and that it provides enough airflow for your bathroom size.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
