As part of a dual bath remodel, the contractor added a new Panasonic Whisper Green fan in each, replacing earlier fans. His electrician did the wiring, per the Installation sketch, I blew it up, make it easier for them, and me. there are 3 switches, Light, General (the Red leads) and Fan, L-R in the sketch... Real world, his guys were kids, did the Hall bath, left, so I finished up the Master bath wiring, identical to the Hall's.
General contractor was not an electrician, but his guys were, AFAIK, I checked the wiring at the time, it was right, but now with everything finished, access to the fan end is not really possible without tearing up the ceilings.
I'm not seeing the action I expected. I have a variety of Modules, discovered there were only 3 ports available, But have yet to contact Panasonic, assuming lots of phone time.. Rather sort it out myself if possible, I've read, studied the documentation, but not seeing what the problem is.
Hall bath: Speed & Night light modules.. Not our regular usage for showers, so no Humidity. Light works, Fan goes on with the Fan switch, never shuts down until it's turned off. Not what I expected, I thought it would time out. Night Light only comes on if the Fan is On. That third switch(Red wires) does nothing to affect it.
Master Bath: Speed and Humidity modules.ight works, Fan goes on with the Fan switch, never shuts down until it's turned off. Not what I expected, I thought it would time out, or the Humidity dropped. If the Fan is On, it stays On. That third switch(Red wires) does nothing to affect it.
It's been a couple years, since late 2017 that we had this work done. A few other things, I had to do myself as the contractor, as I said, wasn't an electrician, I did a ton of wiring in my 40 years at Western Electric, it was easier for me to do a lot of it, rather than wait on his guys. I'd do a lot of extras, cleanups after hours, an advantage of being retired, I suppose, plus knowing it was done right. The remodel took out a closet to double the shower width to 5', a linear drain, added new wall mounted vanities, medicine cabinets, LED lighting besides the Panasonic Fan, all Moen, Koehler, top end fixtures, as well as all new tiled floors, tub & shower the tile goes to the ceiling, nicely done, master bath had to have a pocket door, contractor used a cheap set of track & rollers, I replaced it with Johnston, soft open/close hardware. then had painters in to texture, paint as needed.
So the Panasonic fans are my one remaining unresolved problem. We use it as it is, manually handling the fans, I think I have Motion module for both, but am not wanting to confuse the issue.
So any magical ideas, documents?
I have none...
