The Brilliant
DraftStoppa
Energy Saver for
Exhaust Fans
How
can we save on heating bills in Winter, and cooling bills in Summer?
 It's
not very clever. We spend a lot of money insulating our house- maybe
thousands of dollars on all sort of measures to cut down our heating
and cooling bills. Floor insulation, wall insulation, ceiling insulation,
double-glazed windows etc. etc. For all the steps that we've taken
to improve the energy efficiency of our homes, there are a couple
of gaping holes in our measures. Literally. And they're buring up
our money.
In
the kitchen, we almost certainly have an exhaust fan. Most likely
it's just vented into the roof cavity. In the bathrooms/s, we almost
certainly have an bathroom exhaust fan/Tastic/equivalent. Most likely
these are just vented into the ceiling. Both are roibbing us blind!
In
summer, the air in our roof is very hot. This hot air can flow unimpeded
through our exhaust fans/Tastics into the house. Then we pay for
cooling this hot air. Not clever, Jan.
In
wintertime, we pay a small fortune to heat the house, but cooler
air from the ceiling can pour down into the house. We then pay a
lot of money to heat this air. Not clever, Jan.
How
big a problem? Some recent testing *
showed that you could be paying to heat almost 50 cubic metres of
air an hour through just one exhaust fan cavity.
How
expensive a solution? The DraftStoppa costs just
$35, and can be fitted in almost no time by the home handyman. We
can post it to you anywhere!
How
does it work?
- The
‘DraftStoppa’ prevents cool or warm air escaping to
or entering from the roof cavity.
- The
‘DraftStoppa’ prevents polluted air or cooking smells
from entering other parts of the home or workplace.
- The
‘DraftStoppa’ is economically priced and adapts to
most major ceiling exhaust fans.
- The
‘DraftStoppa’ is a fully recyclable
- The
' DraftStoppa has been plastic injected, moulded in four parts
and can be put together in 15 seconds - no special skills needed
to put it in position over each ceiling's exhaust fans in the
toilet and bathroom.
- The
‘DraftStoppa’ is simple to install and opens and closes
effortlessly without loading-up your ceiling exhaust fans motor.
- The
DraftStoppa will not work with units that vent directly
to an opening via a duct. Check out the new combined
ducted exhaust fan/DraftStoppa -Top Hat.
The
amazing DraftStoppa is available directly from our showroom for
just $33, or we can post to wherever you live in Australia. Get

Installation Instructions
*Testing
by Complex Air Conditioning Pty Ltd as reviewed by the Victorian
Sustainable Energy Authority indicates that in areas where ceiling
fans are in use this adds up to an energy saving of up to 30%.
Test
results concluded that in winter conditions with an outside temperature
of 1oC and an average internal room 10m x 4m x 2.7m – volume
108m3, and an ambient internal temperature of 15.5o C , the cold
air inflow from the roof cavity through an unsealed fan into the
room was measured at 13 litres / second.
This
means that in every hour 46.8m3 of cold air would have entered the
room and the total volume of warm air would be replaced every 2
hours and 20 minutes at a huge reheating cost.
