I have a bathroom with a wall mounted extractor and also an in-line ceiling fan, fed through the loft. They have both failed with faulty components so one or the other, or both need fixing.
We rarely use the lights in the bathroom as during the day, the window gives plenty of light, and in the evening, the light coming through the glass over the door provides ample light. With this in mind, when showering, the fan would never come on as we don't use the light pull switch.
My investigation to fix one or both has led me to believe the in-line fan has far better flow to clear humidity than the wall mounted one. However, the in-line ones don't come with a humidistat option.
Is it a feasable option, and within regs, to power the in-line through a remote humidistat to trigger when the steam builds up the humidity, or is there a good reason in-line one's don't have this feature?
