conflicting information on bathroom fan in zone 1.

hertzal123
Have been on an eicr today and noted a 230v IP44 mainrose intervent BVT  100wall fan about 150mm horizontal from a movable shower head

in zone 1.According to the BBB ,IPx4 fans are ok in this zone.However,when I check online,Mainrose state "the fan should not be

accessable to a person using the shower and be over 1800mm high"So I suppose manufactures instructions hold sway.In the

past I,ve always fitted elv fans in this situation.Wondered what others think.

    Also bear in mind that the fan may get more than splashes. If it's within the tiled portion of the cubicle, then its fairly likely that some point someone will wash down the tiles using the shower head and so the fan may get hit with the full force of a jet spray.
