Hello,
3 months ago I installed the Envirovent eco dmev 100HT (humidity & Timer) Bathroom fan for a customer, and have been called back twice since to replace it! has anyone had any similar experiences? any helpful input would be much appreciated

Hang on farm, I'll consult my crystal balls. They're not chafing any more since I started using sudocrem.

I had 240v going to the unit but it was completely non operational, second callback has just happened and it sounds like it's the same fault second time round.

Yeah but what's the fault?

 

[trev]

Is it a 240 fan?
Believe it or not I've seen it done.

Perhaps he didn't notice all the smoke being blown outside by the fan as the motor went into meltdown when he tested it? :smilielol5:

 

[Farmelectrics]

or he couldnt find the loft hatch

chickens hatch, lofts freeze.

Ok ... here it is: Last week (or thereabouts) I told him that the best thing to soothe sore bollox was Sudocream.

It looks like the lad has followed my advice and agrees.

Is the fan case securely fitted as it will sto the fan working, check the dip switches are fully switched, sited halfway the fan will not function also

hi
i have installed a lot of these fans and had the same problems
i usually end up in installing a sil 100
i think they are too finicky
youve got to get the time and speed limit spot on or its an head ache
recommend in future stick with the sil100 range standard on /off switch
or better still in-line 230 cyclone in loft
