We often get asked how to use a timer with our whole house fans. The short answer is to purchase the optional wireless remote which has a built in timer. But for people who prefer a wall switch there is a solution for you. You can wire a mechanical turn dial timer to operate your WHF. We recommend a mechanical timer because most digital timers require 110v. Our controls are 24v and hooking up 110v would damage the AirScape control board. We also want the process to be a manual one so that you remember to open a window. The following shows two ways to wire a timer with your AirScape WHF:
OPTION 1: TIMER AND AIRSCAPE WALL SWITCH
OPERATION:
ON – Wall switch in on position, turn timer to desired time, chose fan speed
OFF – Switch wall switch to OFF or timer expires
OPTION 2: TIMER AND CUSTOMER SUPPLIED SINGLE POLE SWITCH
OPERATION:
ON – Turn timer to desired time, choose fan speed
OFF – Timer expires
