Installing Smart Bathroom Ceiling Fan - Start to Finish - 1391

I have two bathrooms in my house in Portugal,, the smallest one has two exhaust fans, and the larger bathroom has non.. I do not follow the logic of that,, so I am in this video installing a smart-ish exhaust fan in the larger bathroom. It is smart in the way that it comes on when you turn on the lights,, and stays on for an amount of time, after you have turned off the lights again. And it has a humidity sensor, and if the humidity in the bathroom comes over the set level, it comes on and it stays on until the humidity goes under again.

My PlayHouse is a channel where i will show, what i am working on. I have this house, it is 168 Square Meters / 1808.3ft² and it is full, of half-finished projects.
I love working with heating, insulation, Servers, computers, Datacenter, green power, alternative energy, solar, wind and more. It all costs, but I'm trying to get the most out of my money, and my time.

That smart fan really exhausted me

Ha ha that was a good one 😜

[@HeineChristensen]

AFAIK. Using individual wires for installation is only legal in Denmark if they are routed in for example, pipes. Otherwise, installation cable (double insulated) must be used, similar to the cables that are already used in the ceiling. 🙂

[@grahamleiper1538]

That's same in UK.
Other countries are even more stringent but Portugal is maybe less stringent?
We'd also need a three pole isolator on the fan here to allow for servicing.

Running sockets and lights on different circuits is normal (good) practice.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Okay,, I would have thought room by room would have been more logical.

[@elminster8149]

@@MyPlayHouse It's about the load. Lighting doesn't need much so can use thinner cable and lower rated fuses etc. Sockets take more, so have heavier cable and higher rated fuses.

I enjoyed the part where you got showered with dust. That was entertaining. Good show!

[@MyPlayHouse]

Thank you, i Think 😳 I did not even give you a decent angle of the shot 🤗

[@elminster8149]

@@MyPlayHouse If you do any more hole cutting like that, get a Dade for your drill, catches most of the dust.

You could probably replace a roof stone with ventilation ‚stone‘ - most easy solution, i guess…

the computer cable you tried to salvage might not have been a good idea. although i'm not sure, those cables were stranded; and might not be recommended for electrical work

How much more would a Delta one have been?

[@MyPlayHouse]

This one was €43,, I do not know what a Delta one is..

@@MyPlayHouse Delta Electronics has their own line of brushless DC motor exhaust fans which they sell under the name "Delta Breez" here, but I'm not sure if they sell any in Europe.

[@matthiaslange392]

In germany it's not allowed to mount a fan that close to showers or bath-tubs. How about portugal?

[@MyPlayHouse]

So how do you do it then..

[@matthiaslange392]

@@MyPlayHouse In Germany you have to mount it about something between 50 and 100cm away from water-exposed areas (I don't know the exact distance). It's also not allowed to mount 230V-lights direct above the shower. Only 12V.
