• This sensor is specifically for Brivis evaporative units; it may not be compatible with other brands or types of HVAC equipment.
• Ensure the cable length (820mm) is suitable for your specific Brivis model to avoid stretching or kinking the wiring.

Tradie Pro Tip: Before ordering, measure the length of your existing fan sensor's cable, especially on older units. While 820mm is common, a quick check prevents a callback or a trip back to the shop.
