Blunt’s Electrical installs and replaces exhaust fans across Melbourne, including bathroom ceiling exhaust fans, 3 in 1 heat/light/fan units and ducted inline exhaust fans for apartments, bathrooms and laundries.
We help with practical exhaust fan installation and replacement for moisture control, steam removal, laundry ventilation and upgrading old, noisy or underperforming fans, with neat electrical work and clear advice before installation.
A properly installed exhaust fan can make a bathroom, laundry or apartment feel more comfortable by helping remove steam, moisture and stale air from the space.
Service areas:
We service most Melbourne suburbs including Richmond, Kew, Hawthorn, Abbotsford, South Yarra, Balwyn, Fitzroy, Collingwood, Burwood, Toorak, Camberwell, Glen Iris & many more.
Different properties need different exhaust fan setups. We commonly install and replace ceiling exhaust fans, 3 in 1 bathroom units and ducted inline exhaust fans depending on ceiling access, ducting requirements, product suitability and where the air needs to be discharged.
Standard ceiling-mounted exhaust fans for bathrooms, toilets and laundries. Suitable for many replacement jobs where the new fan matches the existing opening, wiring and ventilation setup.
Heat, light and exhaust fan units, often used in bathrooms. These need suitable ceiling space, switching, wiring and product clearance before installation or replacement.
Inline exhaust fans for apartments, internal bathrooms and laundries where the fan motor sits within the ducting system rather than directly in the room grille.
Not every fan suits every space. We’ll check ceiling access, existing wiring, switching, ducting and the product requirements before confirming the best option.
Exhaust fan installation and replacement is not just about swapping a fan in the ceiling. The right solution depends on room size, ceiling access, existing wiring, switch location, ducting, roof or wall discharge options and the fan type being installed.
We install new exhaust fans and replace old exhaust fans with a focus on safe electrical work, practical airflow, neat finish-off and clear advice if extra ducting, ceiling work or access is required.
If the existing fan has stopped working, is noisy, smells burnt, trips the safety switch or is part of a broader electrical issue, see our electrical repairs page.
Fan Replacement
Replacing old, noisy or underperforming exhaust fans where the new unit is suitable for the existing location.
New Fan Installation
Installing a new bathroom, toilet or laundry exhaust fan where wiring, access and ventilation path are suitable.
Ducted Systems
Ducted and inline fan setups for apartments, internal bathrooms and laundries where standard ceiling fans may not suit.
A good exhaust fan helps remove steam, moisture and stale air from bathrooms, laundries and enclosed spaces. This can make the room more comfortable and reduce the chance of condensation building up after showers, washing or drying clothes.
Better steam removal after showers and baths
Improved laundry ventilation in apartments and internal rooms
Replacement of noisy old fans with a more suitable unit
Cleaner bathroom setups with 3 in 1 heat, light and exhaust units where suitable
More practical airflow with ducted inline fan options for tricky layouts
Confirm the room and fan type — bathroom, toilet, laundry, ceiling fan, 3 in 1 unit, replacement fan or ducted inline fan
Check ceiling access and ducting — roof space, apartment ducting, existing grille, discharge path and practical access
Assess wiring and switching — existing switch setup, power supply, lighting connections and control options
Remove the old fan if required — where safe and practical as part of a suitable replacement installation
Install the fan or unit — secure fitting, neat electrical connections and tidy finish where site conditions allow
Test operation — fan, light, heat lamps and switching checked before we leave
Photos of the existing fan, switch, ceiling area and the new fan box/manual can help us understand the likely scope before booking.
Some exhaust fan jobs are straightforward replacements. Others need extra checks because the new fan may require a different cut-out size, extra switching, suitable clearances, ducting changes or roof space access.
We’ll complete the electrical installation properly, but plastering, painting, ceiling repairs, roof plumbing, building works or cabinetry changes may need to be handled by others depending on the job.
For 3 in 1 units and inline fans, the manufacturer’s installation requirements matter. We’ll check the product and site conditions before confirming whether it is suitable.
We often help Melbourne homeowners and apartment owners replace a noisy bathroom exhaust fan, upgrade an old ceiling fan, install a 3 in 1 bathroom unit, add ventilation to a laundry, or install a ducted inline fan where the room does not have a simple ceiling fan setup.
Exhaust fan installation is commonly combined with lighting installation, power point installation, electrical repairs and broader general electrical work.
If you want a new exhaust fan installed, an old exhaust fan replaced, a noisy fan upgraded, a 3 in 1 bathroom unit installed or a ducted inline fan fitted, this page is the right fit.
If the existing exhaust fan has stopped working, is sparking, smells burnt, trips the safety switch or is part of a larger fault, that is usually better handled under electrical repairs.
