Important Notes
 The ecoFAN™ is designed for general household ventilation only. DO
NOT use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapours.
 One side of the ecoFAN™ has an unguarded fan assembly. DO NOT
use in locations that expose the unguarded side to areas readily
accessible to people or animals.
 Always use the provided power supply and speed controller to power
the fan. Failure to do so can damage the product.
 Ensure that the power supply and speed controller are not left on
damp surfaces, fasten to available structure with cable ties if
required.
 Only use one ecoFAN™ per speed controller and power supply.

Installation—Speed Control Mode
The speed controller has 4 operating modes. These are selectable
via the 4 position selector on the controller box.
To adjust use a 2mm flat screwdriver to turn the switch to the
desired position. This can be done whilst the product is running.
The default starting position is LO.
MODES:
LO (Default) - Continuous operation, low speed, low flow rate,
very quiet, very low power consumption.
MED - Continuous operation, moderate speed, moderate flow
rate.
HI - Continuous operation, high speed, high flow rate.
AUTO - This setting is not suitable for the ecoFAN™ when used
as a sub-floor ventilator
If in Auto mode the ecoFAN™ will automatically adjust the fan speed
dependent on temperature. It will turn off below 30°C. The fan speed
will gradually ramp up through to maximum speed at 45°C.

Q: Do I need an electrician to install the ecoFAN™?
A: If you have an available power point that can be reached then no
electrician is required. If a power point is unavailable then an
electrician will be required to install one.
Q: Can I wire it directly into the mains power?
A: No, you must use the supplied power supply and speed controller for the
ecoFAN™ to work correctly. Failure to do so may damage the product.
Q: Can I duct the ecoFAN™?
A: Yes the ecoFAN™ can be ducted in either exhaust or inlet mode by
slipping 250mm diameter ducting over the lip of the motor housing and
fixing with tape.
Q: Can I paint the ecoFAN™?
A: Yes, standard spray paint can be used to paint the ecoFAN™. No plastic
primer is required, however the surface must be clean before paint
application. Do not get any paint on the motor/fan module. The product
should be disassembled to facilitate easier painting. Instructions on
disassembly can be seen on page 11 of this manual.
