I connected this to my whole house fan. Works as expected. I wanted to limit the amount of time I have the fan on. Since this was originally wired in the attic. This switch is a wonder.

I got one of these for my outdoor patio overhead fans/lights. The timer is good but I have used these and other wall based spring wound timer switches from Intermatic and they don't last more than 3-5 years. The timers quit. Still can be used manually but that's not what I am buying this product for. In that time, you make your money back from the savings without a doubt but be prepared to buy a new one as they will not last. I love the product, hate to be so honest about the lack of useful life but I think Intermatic knows as I've had over 12 of these (many with different timer settings) at my properties and only a few lasted over 5 years. Easy as a light switch to install. Several years of saving on wasted electricity makes this a good deal. I've tried other brands and they fail even sooner.This short life is not representative of all Intermatic timers. The ones that are encased in a metal enclosure with a 24 hour timer and trippers that you can change have been in pools and electric water heaters for 20+ years without a problem except resetting the timers when there has been a power outage. They are great!
Update: One year later...still going strong!

I have used these for many years for controlling bathroom exhaust fans. I have used one unit since 1978 and it still works. In 1978 Amazon did not exist so I did not buy it from Amazon. My most recent unit I bought is from Amazon.Honest reviews on Intermatic FD4HW 4-Hour Spring Loaded Wall Timer, White
Bought this to control my electric pool sweep, overriding the built in timer. I have been using it for several months at it has worked flawlessly.
