FAQs
What is the purpose of the adjustable timer?
The adjustable timer allows the fan to continue running for a set period (1-30 minutes) after the light or switch is turned off, ensuring any remaining moisture or odors are cleared from the room.
Can this fan be installed in a shower cubicle?
The fan itself is not designed for direct exposure to water spray. It should be installed outside the immediate shower cubicle area, typically in the main bathroom or WC space, in accordance with building regulations regarding fan placement and electrical safety.
How often should I clean the fan?
It is recommended to clean the fan grille and blades every 3-6 months, or more frequently if you notice reduced airflow or dust accumulation.
What is the diameter of the ducting required?
The Envirovent Profile 100T requires 100mm (4-inch) diameter ducting.
Is this fan suitable for a kitchen?
While it can be used in a kitchen, it is primarily designed for bathrooms and WCs. For kitchens, a higher airflow rate might be necessary, and specific kitchen extractor fans are usually recommended.
Does this model have a pull cord?
The 'T' in Profile100T typically denotes the timer function. This specific model does not come with a pull cord. Other variants in the Envirovent Profile 100 range may offer pull cord or humidity sensor options.
What is the power consumption?
The fan consumes a low 13 Watts of power.
Troubleshooting
Fan does not turn on
Check the mains power supply. Ensure the circuit breaker is on and the wiring is correctly connected by a qualified electrician.
Fan is noisy or vibrates
Ensure the fan is securely mounted. Check that no wires or debris are obstructing the fan blades. Clean the fan blades if they are dirty.
Fan runs continuously or not long enough after switching off
Verify the timer adjustment. If the fan is wired to a light switch, the timer function operates independently; if wired to a separate switch, ensure it's correctly connected for timer operation. Consult an electrician if unsure.
Low airflow
Check the ducting for kinks or blockages. Ensure the fan grille is clean and free from dust or debris.
