Mode d'emploi

The VIVOHOME AutoFlow fan features intelligent airflow control and a humidity sensor to optimize ventilation.

Humidity Sensor & AutoFlow Design

The fan automatically adjusts its speed based on detected humidity levels:

  • Quiet Mode (30 CFM): Operates when humidity is below 50%.
  • Normal Mode (110 CFM): Activates when humidity is between 50% and 80%.
  • Turbo Mode (160 CFM): Engages when humidity is 80% or higher to rapidly clear steam and odors.

This constant airflow technology ensures stable and reliable ventilation even against duct bends or dust buildup.

Auto Humidity Sensing Operation
Figure 4: Auto Humidity Sensing. The fan automatically adjusts its speed based on real-time humidity, transitioning from 110 CFM (start bathing) to 160 CFM (bathing in progress) and back to 30 CFM (post-bath/before sleep).

The fan can also be controlled manually via the included remote control, offering multiple speed settings beyond the automatic humidity-based modes.
