Yes, indeed.

Ok, that is truly annoying - good luck with everything!

Apogogies for the slow response - I like your picture - thank you - yes I guess we could actually mount it vertically and still have it going out through the same vent as it is currently, it just wouldnt have worked going towards the eaves. Though will it stop the slow leak? But thank you indeed...

Put silicone where you would assume gaskets would be - does that make sense? I hear you about the mould - we have two bathrooms, and the ensuite is really big (converted bedroom), and we had mould forming on the ceiling despite running the damn extractor fan forever - the only way to solve this...

Hi Stem - thank you indeed for that drawing. That would work with most houses, but unfortunately with the way our eaves are it's not possible - there just isn't quite enough space. Or maybe there is just enough space, but every electrician I had come to the house shook their head at the idea.

Thank you blup, for your reply. I have actually spoken repeatedly to the manufacturer, and the current advice is to put silicon around the case where the leaks are. I have, through phoning up extractorfanworld, realised that we do not have enough of a gap (well no gap at all) under the bathroom...

Thank you stem - yes mounting it vertically was an option, but this means changing the installation and venting through the roof, which means considerable extra cost, and I don't think I will be able to find an electrician who knows how to properly fit a condensation trap that goes into the...

Sounds like we are very much in the same boat. I had a look at your original fan, and it appears to be the same as our Aventa 100T - just a different sticker on it. Maybe these are not great units, as they are pretty cheap. For what it's worth this is what I have found out/might be of use to...

We have a similar issue - have you been able to solve it, yet? Once thing I would say is it may be a good idea to use jubilee clips to attach the ducting to the fan as well as the pvc tape which is currently used.

Hello kind people We recently had an Aventa AV100T installed in the loft by a qualified electrician. The fan is leaking a small amount of water where the removable motor is attached to the main casing with two clips. I have checked very carefully that the water is not leaking from where the...
