I have wired the Live to the Switched Live terminal and the fan operates correctly but the automatic shutter does not open. So it looks like it is a faulty unit. I will send it back for an exchange.
Thanks for the useful advice!
Thanks for the replies guys.
This seems like a good idea. So I can just put a wire between the Live and Switched Live terminals on the extractor fan then give it a go.
It was a new build extension so the builder would have had to get all the appropriate certificates/inspections for the building inspector to pass it.
It looks like the builder will not be receiving the final payment until it is sorted.
Thanks for the replies.
The fan is definitely the auto shutter model with the humidistat. The front facia/shutter should automatically move forward and open when the fan is on, which does not happen with mine.
So it seems like it should have the Switched Live connection and it looks like...
I have had an X-Mart Extractor fan with humidistat and automatic shutter fitting in my bathroom.
I have an issue which is the automatic shutter does not work. Everything else seems to work fine with the extractor - the fan turns on and off automatically when there is steam in the bathroom...
I have a cold water pipe running up through a pillar in a wall in a downstairs office/bedroom. I want to reduce the noise when the water is being used.
What kind of sound insulation can I use to cover water pipes in a pillar to reduce the noise?
I want a PIR switch, not to save energy, but so that if someone walks into the kitchen at night the LED lights automatically turn on, so the main lights don't have to be turned on.
True, if the PIR isn't in the correct position it wouldn't work effectively and would drive me mad.
Do I...
