Installation and Maintenance
GENIE 12V & 230V Universal Surface Mounted Fans
Installation of Transformer
Enclosure (12 Volt units only)
The enclosure containing the transformer is
intended to be mounted out of sight (e.g. in a loft,
cupboard, under floorboards etc.). However, if this
is not possible the transformer enclosure should be
mounted as close to the ceiling, or as far from the
"splash zone" as possible (see below for definition
of the splash zone). As can be seen from the table
of wiring sizes, it is advisable to place the enclosure
as close to the fan as possible to reduce the costs
of wiring and assist in installation.
‘Splash zone’
The ‘Splash Zone’ can be considered to be an area
within a bathroom or shower room where a person
using the bath or shower can effectively reach.
An arms reach is defined as 0.6 metres from the edge
of the bath or shower up to a height of 2.25 metres.
Procedure
1.
Remove two screws securing the cover and
remove the cover.
2. Position the base enclosure on mounting
surface and route cables through knockouts.
Mark the fixing points on the mounting surface
and secure using suitable fixings (by others).
3. Connect wiring as shown.
4. Replace cover.
Keep vents clear of obstruction.
Note: No earth is to be connected between
transformer and fan.
Isolation - Before commencing work make sure
that the unit is electrically isolated from the mains
and switched live supply.

Maintenance
General
A washable filter is fitted to protect the fan/motor assembly from
towel lint, talc etc. and to prolong the life of the unit.
However, some fine dust may find its way through the filter
and could build up on the motor and/or impeller. It is therefore
strongly recommended that all units are inspected and cleaned at
least every six months.
Procedure
At all times take care not to damage, distort or disturb the balance
of the impeller. Remove the filter and the electronic control module.
Spring aside the two clips and remove the fan module Inspect and
replace any damaged items.
Using a soft brush or dry cloth remove dust and dirt from the fan
module. Wash front cover in warm soapy water and dry
thoroughly. Re-fit fan and electronic control module, replace front
cover and secure with screws. Wash filter on tepid water to which
a little mild detergent has been added. Shake out excess water and
allow to dry naturally. Replace filter. Refit the retaining screws
(Fig 3). Test run the unit.
