Troubleshooting

Fan does not turn on.

Check the main power supply to the unit. Ensure the circuit breaker is on. Verify the electrical connections are secure and correctly wired. Test the pull cord mechanism for any obstructions.

Fan is noisy during operation.

Ensure the fan is securely mounted and there are no loose parts. Check the impeller for obstructions or damage. Verify that ducting is properly connected and not vibrating against surfaces.

Low airflow or extraction rate.

Check the ducting for kinks, blockages, or obstructions. Ensure the front panel and impeller are clean. Verify that the fan is correctly installed and rotating in the intended direction (if applicable).

Fan turns on but stops intermittently.

This could indicate a motor overheating issue. Ensure the fan is not running continuously for extended periods beyond its intended use, or that there are no blockages causing the motor to strain. Check for loose wiring connections.
