VENTILATION
Is the problem ...
The ventilation has stopped working ?
Guidance:
Check that the power is connected by ensuring the RCD at the electric consumer unit has not tripped out. Also check the programmer (where applicable). Finally, check that this is turned on at the switch on the wall (normally located above the door outside the bathroom). If all appears clear, report it as a defect - all you need do in the description box is quote the code VSW and state:
* Cloakroom or kitchen or bathroom or ensuite
* Type - electric fan or MHVR
(nothing else, no explanation, just this).

SELF-DIAGNOSIS
Useful checklist
If you have just moved in, here are some important reminders:
APPLIANCE WARRANTIES
Don't forget to complete all of the warranty cards for your fitted electrical appliances. Keep a copy and send them off to the manufacturer. Should you ever need to report a fault, you know they will have proof of your cover.
BOILER SERVICE
Make a note in your diary to book a service in 12 months time. Failure to maintain annual services could invalidate your warranty cover.
WATER AND GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE
Make sure you (and other responsible members of the household) know where to find the shut-off valves for water supply and (if applicable) gas.
METER READINGS
Make a note of your meter readings for your electricity supply, water and gas (if applicable). Keep it somewhere safe.
