[QUOTE="skittles, post: 13412, member: 1261"] Bought a new extractor fan to replace the old one thatt stopped working The new fan bought from Wicks has humidistat and timer control! I was hoping to provide a link but wicks do not seem to sell the fan via its web site. The old fan was wired from a spur in the lighting system and was switched on and off useing pull cords on the fan Now the wiring instructions for the new fan shows it should be wired via a switch, ceiling or wall. Two questions, Firstly am I right I can not put a wall switch inside the bathroom Secondly I do not get why a switch is required if it is activated and switched off by the pull cord Anyone HELP! please [/QUOTE]
