im putting a new electric shower in my sisters bathroom. at present they have an electric shower in there with a pull switch with neon indicator but no extraction. in my house i have electric shower and extractor and a switch outside room with red switch that controls the shower and the extractor. i want to do the same for my sister.do away with the pull cord and have it the same as mine. the showers rating is staying the same and its moving into another corner closer to the pullcord. i just need to know how to do the wiring from the feed into the existing pullcord onwards. thanks

Hang on -
im doing my bathroom and need extraction. plan to install an ordinary fan without a timer. can i just go from the existing ceiling rose for power so the fan comes on with the lights. thanks
So what have you got in your setup?

What have you installed and what was already there?

What was done to resolve the circuit protection issues when supplying your fan from the shower switch, (if that's how it works) because if nothing was done then you may have a catastrophe waiting to happen.....
 
i'd scrap your existing idea and look into installing a fan with humidity sensor with manual overide.

When set right it will come on automatically and switch off when the desired humidity level is reached.

Thats ok until someone drops a real smelly one, no humidity there just a pong! :rolleyes:
 
I'm sure that "someone", if concerned?, can use the manual overide switch.
