‘Between the Ventflo ventilation range and Tastic heat/vent/light ranges, we can offer a solution to meet any budget, room size, or design profile. Our products are designed for easy installation, comply with the latest building codes, and will offer the end-user many years of reliable service,’ Monique says.
Ever since John Backwell installed and tested the prototype Tastic in his own bathroom in 1977, the heat/vent/light fitting has enhanced the comfort, performance and aesthetic value of bathrooms across the country. Over the years, IXL have refined and evolved Tastic’s design to remain at the forefront of the product sector: incorporating new design technology, improving performance and energy efficiency while maintaining a contemporary aesthetic.
Current Tastic ranges include Tastic Classic, Eco Tastic and Ducted Tastic, which feature strong extraction fans, powerful heat lamps and energy saving LED globe; the premium Tastic Luminate 3 in 1, with its sleek fascia design, a dimmable warm/cool LED light and inline extraction system.
Last year, IXL released the newest-generation Tastic – the Ovation 3 in 1 Bathroom heat, vent and light. Ideal for medium sized bathrooms, this award-winning product features a powerful centrifugal exhaust fan for a strong airflow extraction of up to 396m3/hr to quickly eliminate steam, keeping the bathroom fresh and dry. Finished in a contemporary white fascia design with frosted 4000K cool white LED lights and 800W heat lamp with Halo Heat™ Technology, Tastic Ovation delivers warmth and light in a stylish package.
‘Tastic Ovation is designed with a side ducted fan with inclined outlet for optimised ducting and easy installation,’ Monique says. The self-sealing back-draught stopper prevents draughts from entering the room via the ceiling, and stops warm air escaping from the bathroom into the roof cavity when the exhaust fan is not in use. This helps to maintain a comfortable temperature in the bathroom, meaning less energy is required for heating.’
As IXL’s most advanced Tastic yet, the Ovation was recognised as an ABA100 Winner for Product Innovation in the Australian Brand Awards 2021.
IXL Tastics are available in a range of sizes, price points, and functional combinations, so whatever your project requirements, there will be a product to suit. If you’re unsure which one is right for your new home or renovation project, you can use IXL’s handy online ‘Help me choose’ calculator to find the maximum performing model(s) for each room type and size.
IXL’s ventilation products offer home builders an easy compliance solution: ‘All IXL Tastics exceed the air flow requirements of the NCC’ Monique Chung says.
‘By maintaining strong airflow over duct runs, Tastic effectively removes steam and prevents excessive condensation,’ Monique adds. ‘This helps inhibit mould growth and damp spots, along with the associated negative impact on occupants’ health and wellbeing, and long-term structural damage or corrosion.’
Quality you can count on
IXL has been a trusted brand in Australian and New Zealand for over 160 years – and the company stands by the quality of its market-leading, locally manufactured products. ‘IXL Tastics come with a five-year in-home warranty, and a two-year warranty on heat lamps and in-line exhaust, so builders can specify them with confidence,’ Monique says.
IXL Ventflo and Tastics are available from leading retailers right across Australia. To find out more about the range and find a product for your next project, visit their website IXL Appliances or contact them on 1300 727 421.
