- Would this put you off using this fan ? let us know what you think of it !
thank you to all that have subscribed so far !! really means a lot !
I think we will stick to Accessories and Circuit Protection lol Great Video Sean!
Thanks 👏🏼
I'd like to see a bathroom fan which allows cable entry from all four corners, has somewhere to stick the CPC (let's face it, Class II or not, most of the time it'll be a 3-core 6243Y cable poking out of the wall), and is made to sit on a a 6A lighting circuit without the manufacturers' instructions asking for a 3A fuse. A fan this tight is okay in a build like that with a nice new flat wall, maybe more problematic where you've some skanky bathroom with a botched 'ole!
Yep it really bugs me that there’s never an earth terminal, feel like you’ve not finished something.
and it may possibly have been a Manufacturing mess up of the actual duct because it definitely shouldn’t have been that tight, even with the duct out of the wall to check it wasn’t skewed.
Thanks for watching big dawg
@@Cablesmith Yep, I know it's not fans, but that's one thing i like about Aico smoke alarms... a cpc terminal. Thank you! BS7671 says there's got to be a CPC so why do so many fittings and fixtures omit one? Manufacturers, any input?
By the way, also unrelated, but if you're a fan of quinetic receivers, the space inside a QR303 receiver allows a 221 series 2 wire wago (the small white ones) to fit inside with 2x 1mm or 1.5mm T&Es in the cable entries, for a workmanlike finish :)
@@TheChipmunk2008 have a look at my recent ish video of soffit lights. I use a 221 inside the Quinetic. 😁
Agreed. I’d also like to see a fan where there is actually sufficient cable space to get a 3core in without having to have absolute precision otherwise the cover doesn’t go on. This one is a different type but you know the ones I mean.
Agree regarding the earth terminal it may not require an earth of CPC but which cable are you running that doesn’t have one?
An external socket doesn’t require one for the back box but they have one why can’t fans have one?
As Sean says he likes 'em tight, I'm surprised Dave didn't have something to say about that, ooh matron as Kenneth Williams would say.
Regards, Ray..
Thanks for the upload. In the process of doing my bathroom up. You’ve made up my mind to get this fan. Very nice look to it. Used to have one of those old flappy expelair fan in there like you used to find in kitchen windows 🤣 Good video. I enjoy your content 👍
It is a nice looking fan, I’ll give it that 👌🏼 quiet too.
Get one ordered from expert elec website 😉
Nice tidy job Sean thought that was Ryan's underpants you where pulling out the hole for a minute. Just shows your a top class spark, I'm impressed with the fuse on the isolator many sparks including myself would just slap a 3 pole isolator on. You have probably started a new trend now 😁
Haha Ryan doesn’t wear underpants 😂
it’s definitely an nice little way of adding a 3A fuse isn’t it. Thanks Adie 👌🏼
I was concerned about the fit into the pipe but I assumed if it was too tight I could sand some off the plastic strip. In the end it was a nice sliding fit into the tube. I used the Manrose 100mm Round Pipe 0.35m which arrived in gray.
I must have had a silly brand pipe on this one then because it was really tight.
As for the grey, a lot seems to be grey now for some reason. Not sure why. Maybe recycled or something
Nice one , nice looking fan.....
Bit of washing up liquid may have assisted the insertion into the pipe
Cheers bud
👍
I used cable lube, yellow 77… didn’t even make a difference
Just came over fro tiktok…excellent videos
Thanks mate 👏🏼 appreciate it massively
Top middle isle find from Aldi 👍
which one ?
The little gas torch, I always melt my pinkies on a lighter 😆
@@TheGorillahands oh yea I’d forgot this was in the video 🤦🏻♂️ think I actually got it online but it’s definitely from aldi, it had their logo on the box 😂 was surprised to see rothenberger actually made it tho
Nice job dude .. Didn’t know they did anything like that split isolation switch I normally put a FCU and a fan isolation switch next to it
Click mode that one, also you can get them from Verso too 😉
@@Cablesmith yep, can't be bothered to look into the blue (soon to change colour for another 80 quid) book... wonder if a DP switch (L and LS) and fuse would satisfy in a grid switch for other styles?
@@TheChipmunk2008 that’s something I’ve never really thought about tbh, it would be doing it’s job. But as with most things I’d imagine they want isolation on all poles 🙄
@@Cablesmith that was my fear
@@Cablesmith ooh didn’t know Verso did them as well another reason to like them 👌🏻😍
That fan is identical to vent axia, which makes sense, as I was told manrose makes a lot of fans for vent axia.
I don't know why manufacturers never supply an earth terminal, they know every accessory requires an earth, whether it's needed or not.
Most likely yes, I fit a lot of fans and usually no matter the brand there’s a manrose that’s identical. Agree fully on the earth terminal 👌🏼
Great video dude.
Thank you mate
They fans do look the business how much do they come in at so I can compare against what I use? That Aldi heat gun is a great buy for that money, gonna try get myself one as well
Think the fan is around £43-50 on average, tiny bit more than what I usually use.
Thanks for watching mate
@@Cablesmith suppose if it suits the customers budget then it’s a nice addition as it definitely is the best looking fan I’ve seen as well.
Always do mate really enjoy the channel
BUNDY10! Great video dude.
Thanks mate 👏🏼
I've got that has heat gun Sean. We are Aldi scrubbers
And proud of it 🙌🏻
I think you put it on the fan before you send it through the wall mate
what? The duct?
if they have 3 terminal block for line, neutral and cpc at the unit, why do they have 3 pole connection at the switch? what cable do you use for these, how many cores?
They don’t have the cpc terminal block in the fan but they should imo. We use 3 core and earth cable, line, switched line, neutral and cpc
@@Cablesmith which terminal conects line and switched line? thanks for your reply
@@daron8982 it depends how it’s been wired but you should have both a permanent and switched live from the lighting
manrose do a deluxe quick internal fit wall kit. great video again mate.
Yea they’re not bad them, good for either hard to reach places or when it’s raining heavy and you don’t want to get the ladder out 😃😂
12th!
First Welsh man tho 👏🏼👏🏼 Yes
@@Cablesmith 🤣🤣🤣
And there’s me thinking I was your number 1 fan ☹️
Did I say someone else was ? can’t remember I filmed this a while ago 🤦🏻♂️😂
Ffs 🤦🏻♂️ just realised…. Had me right over then Ian 😂
Do the vape test sean if u can’t do toilet roll
Hahaha every Time 😂
Can’t find those heat guns 😩😩😩
Aldi mate, think I just ordered it online tbh. It’s really handy when you need it
@@Cablesmith - I’ve tried searching for it but I couldn’t see it 🤦🏻♂️ I’ll have a proper look but it looks perfect for heat shrinking and not burning anything around it!
@@joeypriestman6783 and for £9.99, can’t go wrong. It also has solder tips. Never tried that yet but imagine it will get me out of a tight spot one day
Cant understand?
No subtitles? 😂
Van looks about as clean as mine 🤣🤣🤣
It’s clean now ! As of yesterday 😂
went a bit out of hand
@@Cablesmith I’ve just done the outside of mine…which isn’t really the issue 🤣
@@JayTheSparky yea sod that in the weather it lasts 3 minutes 😂
@@Cablesmith Yeah but with the sun shining I couldn’t see out the windows today for the dirt🤦🏻♂️🤣🤣🤣
@@JayTheSparky 😂😂😂😂😂
First
Yes 🙌🏻
NO
