exhaust fan

Kitchen ceiling spinner

An exhaust fan is a ventilation device that pulls stale air, smoke, moisture, or fumes out of an enclosed space.

Kitchen range hoods and bathroom ceiling fans are common examples.

The fan creates negative pressure, drawing air outward through a duct or vent to the exterior: Turn on the exhaust fan before you start frying.
