Kitchen in-line extractor fan.

Is there a 4 inch in-line extractor fan suitable for over a kitchen cooker, so that the fan unit is outside the kitchen and just a grille on the wall?


Edit. Add. I can't see any through inline filters suitable for 4 inch ducting online, just end fitting types used for hydroponics. Any ideas please?

    Perhaps a greased up, stalled fan in a brick wall, is not as much of risk as in a residential caravan; I was on the same site and remember 4 contractors from Beloit Walmsley in the U.K, they were in South Africa and all burned to death early one Sunday morning; they were on a contract for a new paper mill for Sappi. A fan in the kitchen, started a fire which spread very quickly. They were all "frozen" in position on the edge of their beds and the caravan was a burnt out shell..

    There should be an overheating/staled sensor in these fans with a working fire alarm- (mandatory but just for rented, domestic properties).

    I tend to use Manrose fans as they are good quality. I hope that they contain a thermal cutout in the windings.


    The kitchen has a heat alarm, the other rooms smoke alarms......all interlinked.
