Ventilation fan system with advanced chromatherapy controls
According to an aspect of this disclosure, a ventilation and lighting system including a main housing having an inlet opening and a discharge opening, a blower and motor assembly disposed within a housing and operable to move air through the inlet and outlet, a grille configured to be located at the inlet opening, the grille having a cavity and a plate defining a plurality of apertures through which air may move, and one or more lighting elements arranged within the cavity and an optical component covering the cavity. The system is arranged such that light developed by the one or more lighting elements mixes within the cavity and transmits through the optical component covering the cavity, and the system further includes a controller that coordinates operation of the blower and motor assembly and the one or more lighting elements from a remote location.
1. A ventilation and lighting system, comprising:
a main housing defining an inlet and an outlet
a fan disposed within a housing and operable to move air through the inlet and outlet;
a grille configured to be located at the main housing inlet, the grille comprising a plate defining a plurality of apertures through which air may move;
a cavity defined in the grille;
one or more lighting elements arranged within the cavity and an optical component covering the cavity, wherein light developed by the one or more lighting elements mixes within the cavity and transmits through the optical component covering the cavity; and
a controller that coordinates operation of the fan and the one or more lighting elements from a remote location, the controller comprising scene control configured to define one or more scenes each defining predefined light control and fan control,
wherein the light control comprises predefined settings of one or more of color, duration, intensity, saturation, and correlated color temperature and
wherein the fan control comprises predefined settings of one or more of duration and power.
2. The ventilation and lighting system of claim 1 , comprising:
at least one wireless connection, wherein the at least one wireless connection operatively couples the controller to the fan and the one or more lighting elements.
3. The ventilation and lighting system of claim 2 , comprising:
one or more mobile devices operatively coupled with at least one of the controller, the fan, and the one or more lighting elements.
4. The ventilation and lighting system of claim 3 , comprising:
a control program for controlling the fan and one or more lighting elements, wherein the control program is stored on a memory module disposed in one of the one or more mobile devices, the controller, and the main housing.
5. The ventilation and lighting system of claim 4 , wherein user inputs are received at both the one or more mobile devices and the controller, and the control program synchronizes control of the system in response to the user inputs.
6. The ventilation and lighting system of claim 4 , comprising one or more scenes stored within the memory module and executable by the control program to coordinate operation of the fan and the one or more lighting elements during a predetermined period.
