    Ductless Fans?

    Anybody ever installed one of these and are they any use. Went to a clients house today to drill out through the wall for ducting for an extractor fan i a bathroom and she's informed me she wants a ductless fan?? Surely these wouldn't be efficient getting rid of moisture?

    Humidistat Fans

    Hi, Does a humidistat fan need a Switched Live, it seems that it doesn't need to go ON with the light but just whenever the sensor says so. In that case does it just need a Permy Live and Neutral? Cheers Nick

    Is this the death knell for LV fans

    Am I correct in assuming that in domestic properties as long there is RCD protection and the fans are IPX4 there is not a requirement any more for fitting LV fans in special locations. If this is the case will the manufactuers start to only produce 230 volts units?:) Regards Sparky 200
