Tronic Galvanised Iron Exhaust Fan, 24 Inch

Our review

This is a 24-inch exhaust fan from Tronic, made with galvanised iron rather than the painted steel or plastic housings common on cheaper units. That choice of material matters in humid, dusty or coastal settings, where ordinary fan bodies rust and seize long before the motor gives out. It suits workshops, kitchens, stores and other spaces where air needs to move constantly and the fan has to cope with rough surroundings.
Before buying, measure the opening or wall space you have, since a 24-inch fan needs a substantial cut-out and firm mounting. Check how you will power it and whether the airflow direction matches your layout, because exhaust fans are usually fitted to push air out, not circulate it. Compare against plastic-bodied alternatives: they cost less and are lighter, but galvanised iron generally holds up better where moisture and grit are present. Available on Sokonia.
