Product Information

Full details

The Awenta SYSTEM+ 125mm extractor fan is designed for homeowners seeking an efficient and quiet ventilation solution with a modern aesthetic. Its key benefit is the integrated humidity sensor, which automatically manages moisture levels, preventing issues like mold and condensation. A potential caveat is its reliance on a switched live for the humidity sensor to function optimally. This fan offers a powerful yet silent operation, a sophisticated matte black glass TRAX front panel, and easy installation for wall or ceiling mounting.

FAQs

What is the purpose of the humidity sensor?

The humidity sensor detects an increase in moisture in the air and automatically activates the fan to extract it, helping to prevent condensation, mold, and stale odors.

Can this fan be installed in a bathroom?

Yes, its IPX4 rating makes it suitable for use in bathrooms and other areas prone to moisture. Professional installation is recommended.

How do I clean the matte black glass front panel?

Use a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild glass cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by a dry cloth to prevent streaks. Avoid abrasive materials.

What size ducting does this fan require?

This Awenta SYSTEM+ fan is designed for standard 125mm diameter ducting.

Is professional installation necessary?

While not strictly mandatory, professional installation by a qualified electrician is highly recommended, especially for ensuring correct wiring of the humidity sensor and safe operation.

How loud is the fan?

The fan is designed for silent operation, making it unobtrusive in living spaces.

What are the power specifications?

The fan has a power consumption of 19W and operates on a 230VAC, 50Hz power supply.

Troubleshooting

Fan not turning on

Check the main power supply and ensure the circuit breaker is engaged. Verify all electrical connections are secure, especially the switched live for the humidity sensor.

Fan runs continuously

Ensure there are no persistent high humidity levels or that the sensor is not obstructed. If the issue persists, check the sensor wiring.

Humidity sensor not activating

Confirm that the fan is receiving power via the switched live circuit. The sensor requires this specific connection to detect humidity changes. Ensure the sensor itself is not blocked by dust or debris.

Reduced airflow

Inspect the ducting for any blockages or kinks. Clean any dust or lint buildup from the fan blades and grilles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Awenta SYSTEM+ fan is designed for direct connection to a 125mm diameter duct. It can be mounted on a wall or ceiling. Electrical connections should be made by a qualified electrician, particularly to ensure the humidity sensor functions correctly. The fan requires a switched live connection for automatic humidity-triggered operation.

Care: To maintain performance and appearance, regularly clean the fan's exterior and interior. Wipe the matte black glass front panel with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure the fan's grilles are free from dust and debris; gentle vacuuming or using a soft brush can help.
