FAQ
Q: Can we link the Toilet Exhaust Fan blueprint with the Bathroom Humidity Exhaust Fan blueprint as my bathroom has a toilet and a shower?
A Yes, please follow these steps Click Here.
Q: I am using the inverted trigger option and every time I turn OFF the by-pass the fan comes ON. Can I stop this from happening?
A Yes, use the wait time. If you would like it to work without waiting then set this time to “0”. This will stop the fan coming ON when turning the by-pass OFF and using the inverted trigger option.
Q: I am using a motion sensor and the trigger wait time but the fan never comes ON? or, I am using a motion sensor and the trigger wait time but the automation is not working correctly?
A Motion sensors tend to go ON and OFF (detected and clear) in a short time period. The trigger wait time requires the trigger to be ON and remain ON for a set amount of minutes before it will turn the fan ON. The trigger wait time is best suited when using a trigger like a light or a sensor that remains ON until you leave the bathroom. If you are keen to use some type of motion sensing maybe try using a presence detectors or maybe have a short delay OFF in your motion sensor.
Q: I would like to set a different value but the slider is not letting me?
A Just simply type the number value you would like in the field and click save. A red line will appear under the number you have entered but once you click save, exit the automation and go back into it the red line will not be there.
