AXC Range Hood Exhaust Fans may be used as principle
exhaust fans or as booster fans to improve the efficiency of
existing residential range hoods. AXC fans may be speed
controlled with an independent speed controller, or by
tying into an existing range hood controller. Rugged,
heavy gauge housings have a baked epoxy coating inside
and out for superior corrosion protection.

Prior to selecting product and materials, consult local
building codes.
A range hood grease filter, commonly found in
pre-fabricated hoods, must be used in conjunction
with AXC fans.
AXC fans may be mounted at any angle.
AXC fan sound levels decrease as the installation
distance from the range hood increases.
