Behind this peculiar name hides a device that I consider to be one of the market\u2019s best options for folks with small to medium-sized bathrooms (check out our post on the <a href=\"https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/best-exhaust-fans-for-small-bathrooms\/\">best fans for small bathrooms<\/a> as well).<\/p>\n<p>One of this model\u2019s best features is that it can work at three different speeds. And while it doesn\u2019t have an LCD screen, the unit comes with 8 LED lights, 5 of which inform the homeowner about the current temperature.<\/p>\n<p>For the best moisture-removal results, you will want to set both of A1WINDOWFAN\u2019s fans in the exhaust mode. Fortunately, however, the model\u2019s fans can also be set in the fan mode, as well as in the \u201cdual\u201d mode (fans moving air in opposite directions).<\/p>\n<p>The two 9\u201d fan heads are powered by separate motors. These are made out of copper and are exceptionally durable. The expandable side panels, on the other hand, are there to make fitting this exhaust fan into any window as easy as possible.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, Genesis A1WINDOWFAN is an affordable but well-made bathroom window exhaust fan and a great option for those looking to save some money.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-row\"><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Durable copper fan motors<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">3 different fan speeds<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Expandable side panels<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Built-in thermostat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div> <div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">No LCD screen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<h3>2.

While it\u2019s not the best appliance of this type available on the market, it is very well-built and performs just as advertised.<\/p>\n<p>The main selling point of Lasko W09560 is the fact that it\u2019s a Bluetooth-enabled bathroom window exhaust fan. In other words, you can control it with your smartphone &#8211; all you need to do is download the Lasko Connect app.<\/p>\n<p>Just like the rest of the models in this roundup, this one is also equipped with two fan heads. These are independently controlled fan heads, i.e. each of them has its own motor. It goes without saying, but this allows the user to program each fan head separately.<\/p>\n<p>Another great thing about this exhaust fan is that it\u2019s very easy to install &#8211; once you place it into a window, you only have to extend its side panels. It also has a small LCD screen and a couple of simple buttons.<\/p>\n<p>Other features worth mentioning are the 8-hour timer, the digital thermostat, as well as the fact that Lasko W09560 can remove excess moisture at three different speeds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-row\"><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">A Bluetooth-enabled fan<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Convenient LCD screen<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Digital thermostat<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">8-hour timer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div> <div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Louder than expected<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<h3>3.

Although not the most powerful bathroom window fan out there, it does a pretty good job at exhausting stale indoor air and bringing in fresh air from the outside.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most interesting things about this particular model is that it comes equipped with a manual thermostat, despite its relatively affordable price. I can confirm that this feature works well and successfully manages to maintain an ideal comfort level.<\/p>\n<p>The two 8\u201d fan heads of Holmes HAWF2041-N, on the other hand, are powered by independent electronically-reversible motors. In other words, they can do all three important operations: air exchange, air exhaustion, and air intake.<\/p>\n<p>The unit arrives together with an extender panel and an adjustable extender screen. Installing it is relatively easy, and you should have no trouble with fitting this model into a larger bathroom window.<\/p>\n<p>The last thing worth mentioning is that both motors are water-resistant and can operate at three different speeds.

It\u2019s a simple appliance that is easy to install and which works quite well for what it is.<\/p>\n<p>The WDF9-1D has two 9\u201d fan heads, both of which are powered by a single copper motor. They allow the unit to effortlessly circulate air in a medium-sized bathroom and can be used at three different speeds.<\/p>\n<p>To fit the appliance into your bathroom window, you\u2019ll have to use its expandable side panels. Amazon states that these fit windows whose dimensions are between 25\u201d and 32\u201d. To make installing and transporting this model a bit easier, Amazon equipped it with removable feet and a carrying handle.<\/p>\n<p>As expected, the fan heads of this model feature reversible airflow blades. This means that the appliance can bring fresh air inside and exhaust the moist and stale air to the outside. There is also an adjustable thermostat.<\/p>\n<p>I consider the AmazonBasics WDF9-1D to be a pretty good choice if you have a medium-sized bathroom and you\u2019re looking for something that\u2019s simple, affordable, and that does its job without hiccups.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-row\"><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Simple but practical<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Adjustable thermostat<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Three different speed settings<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Removable feet &amp; carrying handle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div> <div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">No LCD screen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<h3>5.

And when it comes to bathroom window exhaust fans, the capability to maintain a selected bathroom temperature is always a huge plus in my book.<\/p>\n<p>Once we combine all of these features with a generous 5-year warranty against defects, we get what is truly the best appliance of this type currently available on the market.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-row\"><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Two high-performing 8.5\u201d fans<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Programmable thermostat<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">LCD screen &amp; remote control<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">5-year warranty<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div> <div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">The remote has a limited angle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<h2>Should I Get Myself a Bathroom Window Exhaust Fan?<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5290\" src=\"https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-with-a-window-fan.jpg\" alt=\"Bathroom with a window fan\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-with-a-window-fan.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-with-a-window-fan-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-with-a-window-fan-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In case you have a bathroom window but not a \u201cregular\u201d exhaust fan that goes into the ceiling, a bathroom window exhaust fan is an excellent ventilation option.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s true that you can ventilate your bathroom by simply opening the window, doing that is not always enough &#8211; sometimes, you will want something a bit more powerful and also faster.<\/p>\n<p>All of these appliances fit standard-sized windows, usually starting at the width of 24\u201d. Most of them can also be extended up to about 37\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>A vast majority of bathroom window exhaust fans feature adjustable panels on their sides. These panels allow homeowners to fit the appliance into a window &#8211; you only have to pull them out.<\/p>\n<h2>How do These Appliances Work?<\/h2>\n<p>A standard device of this type usually sports so-called reversible airflow fan heads.<\/p>\n<p>Most bathroom window exhaust fans come with two fan heads &#8211; one being positioned only a few inches away from the other &#8211; and these are capable of reversing airflow backward (in order to pull the fresh air into the bathroom) and forward (to exhaust excess humidity to the outside).<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, one of the two reversible airflow fan heads can be put in a fan mode and the other in exhaust mode. As you can already guess, the result of two fan heads moving air in opposite directions is greatly improved air circulation.<\/p>\n<p>In a bathroom, a homeowner would obviously want at least one side of their venting appliance to be exhausting air to the exterior.<\/p>\n<p>If you are planning on replacing your old fan with a new one, check out our post on <a href=\"https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/how-to-remove-bathroom-exhaust-fan\/\">how to remove a bathroom exhaust fan<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Is it Safe to Use One Above a Bathtub?<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5108\" src=\"https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-window.jpg\" alt=\"bathroom window\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-window.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-window-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/scottsbathrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/bathroom-window-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One very important thing to mention about bathroom window exhaust fans is the safety hazard that comes with installing one of these appliances above a bathtub.<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s not properly secured to a window and consequently falls into a bathtub that\u2019s currently being used by a person, a bathroom window exhaust fan can cause electrocution.<\/p>\n<p>A vast majority of people are completely unaware of the fact that you can get electrocuted even if your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/news\/world-news\/tragedy-teen-dies-after-dropping-21493202\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cellphone on a charger<\/a> falls into the bathtub while you\u2019re using it. If it\u2019s not adequately secured, a bathroom window exhaust fan can do the same thing.<\/p>\n<p>In newly constructed bathrooms, GFCIs (ground-fault circuit interrupters) are required in all outlets. As their name suggests, these have special switches that can, upon detecting a ground fault, completely cut off an outlet\u2019s access to electricity.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, if you have an outlet located directly above your bathtub, it\u2019s a good idea to avoid plugging any device into it &#8211; it\u2019s better to be safe than sorry.
