the fan has a timer, that way it carries on working for a bit after you turn the light off hopefully making it a little bit more pleasant for the next user

It's so you can't forget to turn it on.

There should be a fan isolation switch:

somewhere so that the fan can be isolated for maintenance without having to turn the lighting circuit off....

They've done it the best way.


When you have a hot bath on a cold day, and the window isn't running with condensation, you'll agree.
