Wall switch won't turn off bathroom ceiling fan
I have a wall switch to turn the bathroom ceiling fan on/off for taking showers, one night after it was turned on, could not turn off, the fan kept running after turning the switch on and off a couple of times, so I had to unplug the fan from the ceiling box. May anybody help?
Thanks in advance, Ann |

Thanks in advance, Ann These are great for bathroom exhaust fans. https://smile.amazon.com/Intermatic-.../dp/B00LBHBGZ4 Better yet are humidity sensor switches with a manual On/automatic Off for odors. Timers are great for bathroom heaters. Here's my switch bank. From the left: Dimmer for the lights Humidity sensor for the fan* Timer for the heater.** * The fan can be turned on manually, but will turn off automatically after 30 minutes, assuming the humidity level is low enough. "Forgetting" is not an issue. ** The heater can only be turned on via one of the timer switches, but can be turned off manually if desired. Again, "forgetting" is not an issue. http://i.imgur.com/HjzkETf.jpg |
