great video! I have Question maybe you can help, I have coming from my home, a White , Blk , Red and ground connected to my old fan and the new fan has only Wht, Blk and ground what do i do with the red wire coming from the home?
You could hire a professional to check the ductwork leading out, if it's pinched or in a bind or has anything blocking it you could run into this problem
I have an older home with no dedicated neutral in the box. I ran new wiring from the fan to the switch. Do I need to run new wiring to the breaker box too?
@@ElectricalCodeChanges yeah of course. i watched the video. You cannot attach brackets to fan shroud if space between studs is 15". I guess you could cut them. That is probably what i will do when i install the fan in the downstairs bathroom.
How's yours holding up? My main light with the 4 touch settings is now flashing like a florescent bulb going bad on the high settings. Doesnt do it all the time but pretty often.
where did you purchase your switch? I am in need of a switch as my 159.00 fan light night light music combo didn't come with a switch. I purchased it from Home Depot.
I have a question Im using 2 home netwerks BT bathroom fan I have one dedicated circuit the problem have is. If I turn the light on or fan it will turn on also in adjacent bathroom. Why is this happening and how do I correct this issue
I think how I accomplished it was by moving to the other side of the house and programming one and then moving far away to the other side and programming the other.
My bathroom is the same size and orientation as this one. Do you think I will still need a can light in the shower stall or does this put out enough light? I love your “5 min” comment by the way
Great question! It is definitely enough light to live by! Having a vanity light, or a can light in the shower would definitely make things brighter! Thank you for your comment! And if you ever need anything in life or business please email me any time at electricalcodecoach@gmail.com
Great video. One topic I would like to see one day is pricing. I have trouble knowing what to charge people. Sometimes people want things done dirt cheap and I refuse but I'm not really sure what price I should and shouldn't tolerate.
Mine didn't come with a switch, (the content included in the instructions manual doesn't mention a switch included) My electrician contacted it to the regular switch (one wire option). The fan worked, however the light didn't. Help!
I ran a separate 12/3 line from my breaker box for this switch. Connected the white to white and green to ground and red and black wire to black wire. It lights up but does not come on. What did I do wrong?
What is the cause of a grounding conductor becoming energized or hot along with the hot wire in a NM cable? I am asking this because i came across a junction box that was left open and upon organizing it, i found a grounding bare copper conductor separate from the splice and as i touched it, it shocked me. FYI it was not connected to anything but it was part of the NM cable that fed the junction box with electricity.
That is an excellent question. If it's a equipment grounding conductor bare or covered it would be considered a ground fault. This can happen from a Nick and the cable. A piece of equipment being in contact with a hot conductor and it trying to travel back. A piece of equipment failing. Somebody improperly bonding the neutrals and grounds. There are many other ways but these are a few. If one of those grounds in that junction box went back to the panel and it was properly connected when you remade the junction back up it should trip the breaker If it has a low enough impedance/resistance path. Before this was done the circuit should be turned off that controls the fault. Another note if you ever disconnect a bundle of neutrals while the circuit is on and you disconnect the path back to the source one or more of those neutrals could become hot because the circuit is incomplete. It's best to never undo a bundle of neutrals unless you are positive that all the circuits are off. Hope this helps!
What a missed opportunity of hooking up the switch, which is the most questioned and hardest part of the installation.
You skipped the wiring of the switch.. that the while reason I watched this! I'm confused on the red/vs black
How didn you wire the switch?
great video! I have Question maybe you can help, I have coming from my home, a White , Blk , Red and ground connected to my old fan and the new fan has only Wht, Blk and ground what do i do with the red wire coming from the home?
Have you had any issues with the metal box? I seen in the instructions of mine to not use a metal box.
I need one of them vents with music . nice installation .
I appreciate that bro yeah they are super cool
I have this exact fan. Does it not suck air in well? My bathroom still get super steamy
You could hire a professional to check the ductwork leading out, if it's pinched or in a bind or has anything blocking it you could run into this problem
Hey great video! I am just wondering where I can buy the blue led panel control switch?
Should come with the unit
I have an older home with no dedicated neutral in the box. I ran new wiring from the fan to the switch. Do I need to run new wiring to the breaker box too?
How did you attach the brackets? Joices are in the way
We did it from up above
@@ElectricalCodeChanges yeah of course. i watched the video. You cannot attach brackets to fan shroud if space between studs is 15". I guess you could cut them. That is probably what i will do when i install the fan in the downstairs bathroom.
Can I have 2 of these zinc my house? Or if the other has music on, the other will?
You can have two of them
@@ElectricalCodeChanges thanks!!
Any advice on installing this fan with no attic access? My bathroom is on the 2nd floor with pitched ceiling. Thanks
Oftentimes we will just have to cut holes in the drywall.
What the brand name of this unit and where can i buy it
Excellent
Im installing this one. Dont have access to the attic as its the bathroom on my bottom level.
👍🏻👍🏻
What model fan is that?
Not sure what model this one was
Can you install the touch screen switch on a three way switch?
So touch screen switch- to three way- to light
Check the instructions with the switch!
What's do u do what my stock light switch only has a black an white wire?
See if this helps you ua-cam.com/video/c1STuuvjjwg/v-deo.html
How's yours holding up? My main light with the 4 touch settings is now flashing like a florescent bulb going bad on the high settings. Doesnt do it all the time but pretty often.
Thank you for sharing the information I haven't had anyone called back where I've installed them but if I do I will come back and post!
why not show how you connected the switch-on-wall connections?
where did you purchase your switch? I am in need of a switch as my 159.00 fan light night light music combo didn't come with a switch. I purchased it from Home Depot.
Does it require an app?
Nope

What’s name of your switch
Hello, I'm stumped on the threeway exixting wire I have I'm not sure what to hook up to what could you help? Old switch was just black/white/ground.
How do I turn on the music
You will hook it up via Bluetooth and then use your device just like a normal Bluetooth setup
What’s the name of the light switch brand?
Great question! That one actually came with the fan!
Thanks buddy for helping out a fellow sparky great channel keep up the great work
You are very welcome brother!
My fan didn’t come with the switch. Now what?
@@kevinfraser640 mine either, what did you find out?
My bathroom is the same size and orientation as this one. Do you think I will still need a can light in the shower stall or does this put out enough light? I love your “5 min” comment by the way

@@ElectricalCodeChanges does the light switch come with the fan?
Great video. One topic I would like to see one day is pricing. I have trouble knowing what to charge people. Sometimes people want things done dirt cheap and I refuse but I'm not really sure what price I should and shouldn't tolerate.
That is a great idea for a video series!
@@ElectricalCodeChanges I'll be waiting for that really important video.
Where can I buy just the switch? My switch is no longer working and I need to replace it without buying the whole fan again 🥴 please help
Great question! I would contact the manufacturer first if that does not work let me know and we will dive deeper!
Mine didn't come with a switch, (the content included in the instructions manual doesn't mention a switch included)
My electrician contacted it to the regular switch (one wire option). The fan worked, however the light didn't.
Help!
Ouch I would call the manufacturer!!
Theres a whining pitchy noise on this fans speaker through different settings. Any ideas?
sorry to hear that, it could be an interference from other electronics or other light bulbs nearby
You can sell those vintage fans on eBay I collect vintage fans
Very cool! I didn't know that! Thank you for sharing!
I ran a separate 12/3 line from my breaker box for this switch. Connected the white to white and green to ground and red and black wire to black wire. It lights up but does not come on. What did I do wrong?
so it lights up but no fan?
@@ElectricalCodeChanges no fan, no lights. Figured it out though. The red wire is independent of the black power wire.😀
@@phullyauto1646 what do you do with the red wire? my box only has white black and green
I have the same problem. White black and bare wire. Where do I connect the red wire?
What is the model number for the switch… you didn’t post that…..

@@ElectricalCodeChanges thank you so much, i will look into it today. Appreciate it!
You didn't even show where the wires attached
