Brivis Fan Limit Switch 8 inch

This Honeywell L4064B2236 fan limit switch is a direct replacement for Brivis ducted gas heaters, crucial for managing blower operation and preventing overheating. It's an auto-reset model, meaning it kicks back in automatically once temperatures are back in spec.

Keeping your ducted heating system running safely and efficiently, especially during those unexpected cold snaps in the Aussie winter, depends on reliable components like this. If the fan isn't cutting in or out properly, this switch is often the first thing a tech will check.

Best For

Australian HVAC techs, service and maintenance teams working on Brivis ducted gas heaters, and competent DIY owners familiar with appliance repair.

4. Replace Switch: Remove the faulty switch and install the new Honeywell L4064B2236, making sure the 8-inch probe is seated correctly in the plenum.
5. Reconnect and Secure: Re-attach all wiring exactly as documented, then replace all access panels.
6. Test Operation: Restore power and test the heater to confirm the fan cycles on and off as expected with the burner's operation.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Always isolate power before attempting any electrical work on HVAC systems.
• Ensure the probe length matches the original component for correct temperature sensing and safe operation.
• Installation should only be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with Australian standards and local regulations.
• This switch is only compatible with Brivis systems requiring the specified 8-inch auto-reset fan limit switch.

Tradie Pro Tip

Before you pull the old switch out, take a quick photo of the wiring. It saves a lot of head-scratching when you're putting the new one in, especially on older units where the wiring colours might be faded or non-standard.
