We have three extractor fans I wish to replace, preferably with silent models.
Two of the same model (GET GFAN4) are in an ensuite and main bathroom. One has stopped working altogether. These are wired to a switch next to the light switch and come on and off with this switch only. The light being on/off doesn’t affect them and they don’t continue after being switched off.
The third is in a downstairs toilet (EMMA EMCFTB?). It’s quite noisy. This also has its own switch next to the light switch, however this one only comes on if the light is on and continues to run for a few seconds even if both switches are turned off. This is more of a box unit compared to the other two.
I haven’t opened any of them up yet. I wanted to ask on here if anyone can recommend any silent models that would be an easy swap (and provide links)? I would also like to know if the bathroom and ensuite ones could be made to work with the light and run on a timer for a bit like the one in the toilet? I’m not sure if the wiring is already there but not being used and wondered how I could check?
