The provided manual describes the Click 250mm Ventilating Ducted Exhaust Fan, a product designed for indoor use, specifically for installation in flat ceilings. This exhaust fan is intended to improve air quality and ventilation in rooms by extracting air.
Function Description:
The Click exhaust fan is a ventilating ducted exhaust fan that removes air from a room. It operates by drawing air through its grille openings and expelling it through a ducting tube to an external outlet. This process helps to reduce humidity, odors, and other airborne pollutants, making it suitable for bathrooms and similar spaces. For efficient operation, the room must allow replacement air to enter, typically through a vent in a door or an open window. The unit is designed for permanent installation and requires connection to the main power supply by a licensed electrician.
