extractor fan

[mickd]

two shower rooms but only one extractor fan,how do i wire it if i want to
put on the front shower room lights and the fan to work without effect the
rear shower room,and visa-versa

 

[breezer]

you would need to have 2 pull cords in each one for fan (wired as two way) and one for each light (wired as one way)

it would be easier / better to have two fans, also it may be one fan may not be able to cope with two showers, i have 2 fans for one shower as the one fan was in my opinion too feeble

Thanks Breezer for the reply,i am using wall switch's outside the
room's.The fan is a vent-axia in-line flow fan,have been advised
the the extraction rate is good

 

[breezer]

in that case i would suggest a 2gang 2way switch (any good diy store)

you should wire the lights (one way) one switch and the fan should be wired as two way.

This way each can turn their own light on but each can turn the fan on or off.

to find out how to wire them look in the forums for 2 way switching (obviously you will have a fan where the light is)
