      I reckon the old one was knackered and loud, so they were worried the new one would keep them awake. New ones are much quieter as Delroy says

      What’s wrong with some people can’t stand a fan running longer than 5 mins , its to clear the humidity🙄🙄

    Sometimes inline fan in roof space. Mounted on soft rubber bushes or suspended from rafters , and not touching anything solid cuts down noise and vibration...

    I don't think I've ever seen an exhaust fan with a run on timer type function here in Australia, but all these UK electricians I've seen fit them. Also in many bathrooms, the fans and lights have separate switches, though not all do.

    • @torsson2
      @torsson2 11 месяцев назад

      My pax fan in Sweden has Timer, auto humidity and if i flip a switch it will run until i flip it of. With humid setting you should be able to just give it max value and it will run whenever it needs to get humidity down. And it will lower and increase speed automaticly depending on the level of humidity.

      Hi Amo. That's what she said she'd leave the light on if necessary rather than have 15 min overrun. It's quite a small flat. I suppose if the toilet is used late at night the fan may be a bit annoying, it's right next to the bedroom. thanks for watching.
