Hi guys, quick question.
Has anyone had experience of putting an extractor fan with run on timer on a dimmer switch? Will it work?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Was asked to do away with a speed controller for a vortice 23 9 ar wall fan.
The customer just wants the fan to work straight from a switched spur.
I have taken out the speed controller and there is a 4 cores going to the fan.
I know which the neutral is and have identified the L1, L2 & L3...
Hi All,
Just had our annual NICEIC inspection and all went OK we passed,:) !! anyway during the conversation it came up that there had been an instance of a 4" fan going up in flames. At the court hearing it came down to either the contractor was at fault or was it the fan. The manufacturers of...

Just wondered if anyone has any experience with industrial sweep fans?
Ive just replaced some in a factory, and the client thinks that they are going the wrong way.
Important that i add, the existing wiring means that we can only run these in the one direction. The idea is that...

Anybody ever installed one of these and are they any use. Went to a clients house today to drill out through the wall for ducting for an extractor fan i a bathroom and she's informed me she wants a ductless fan?? Surely these wouldn't be efficient getting rid of moisture?
does anyone know if what im saying is correct, if a bathroom or anywhere that needs an extract fan has natural light the fan does not need to switch on with the light, if the room has no natural light the fan HAS to activate with the light. i cant remember but was having a convo with another...

Hi i am currently wiring my parents bathroom, they have 2 fans which are both in a zone 1 area. Is it possible for me to wire both fans off 1 transformer ?

Hi,
Does a humidistat fan need a Switched Live, it seems that it doesn't need to go ON with the light but just whenever the sensor says so. In that case does it just need a Permy Live and Neutral?

Need to pick brains again . Got some new build jobs comming up and need clarification on whether you need to install a kitchen fan even if it has a ventilated cooker hood? Ive heard that it needs to extract 60ltrs/min.
Not quoted for this as developer hadn't requested it for the quote.

On a fan isolator you have a 3 core go to it cus you need a sw a perm feed and neutural am I right? Then a 3 core out to fan, well assuming I am right does this mean you can only wire off the first light of a circuit because that's where your perm feed goes into your loop and if you go off last...
If doing a full house rewire are you now supposed to install mains interlinked smoked detectors and extractor fans to kitchen and bathroom?
Isn't this covered in Part B or building regs and not Part P that we have to comply too?
If the customer says they dont want any smokes or extractor...
The panel i looked at today has a flow fail light showing on all the supply fans. After looking for the breakers and looking at the light for a trip, all looked ok.
The fans are not running , but a flow fail light is on and the breakers have not tripped out.
Do you think the fans have been...
Hi Guys,
its been a while since Ive been on here but I was wondering if anyone has installed any bathroom fans with humidity sensors. Got to install one tomorrow and was wondering if they are wired any different from normal ones.

Evenings folks,
I have been asked to install an extractor fan in a kitchen above a cooker. It is a standard thru wall type and not a "kitchen Canopy" type.
I have been looking thru the regs book and onsite guide to see what if any regs effect the location of it but cant find anything.
