Extractor fan

Seem to be having a few condensation issues with the house, mainly in the kitchen and dining room.

Can anyone recommend a decent extractor fan that's relatively quiet and low wattage?

Can you get automated fans that extract when they detect moisture or will I need to turn the fan on manually?

It's a pretty old house, built in 1906 iirc. We've already had a damp proof injection.

Thanks guys.

Does it matter whether I go Centrifugal or Axial?

ah ok, no I won't need a lengthy duct.

where's the best place to put the fan then? would it be ok above the kitchen cupboards?

Thanks for all the replies guys. Think we need to get a tumble dryer ASAP too, we're drying clothes inside with this weather, doesn't help condensation!
