[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 550174, member: 250"] You didn't say if this fan is a ceiling fan or an in-line fan part way along the duct? Good observations by UNG... You need to consider the physical fan arrangements not just wiring connections etc. As longer duct lengths typically need fans that can move a higher volume of air to reduce build up of condensation problems, which can in poorly designed systems allow moisture to penetrate parts they should not! Most ceiling, (and wall), fans are designed for short duct lengths. But longer duct lengths are very prone to condensation where warm moist air inside a duct is passing through a cooler ceiling/loft void with insufficient air flow per minute. [/QUOTE]
