Now there’s an easy way to wirelessly control ventilation systems from anywhere in a home or building with the Home Breeze mobile app controller.
Managing your Whole House Fan, Attic or other Remote Ventilation with Home Breeze will only further reduce monthly costs and aid in energy efficiency.
The Home Breeze mobile app needs to be paired with the Intematic Wireless Ventilation Control Hub to sync the ventilation systems to the app.
When using the app there must be a connection to a WiFi network that is being used by the Control Hub.

The Home Breeze app works with your ventilation by:
• Turn On/Off
• Adjust Speed
• Set Countdown Time (Up to 8 Hours)

Ratings and Reviews
The system needs updating
Although the unit can be used as a stand-alone hub, the basic mechanism is to access the unit’s WiFi and use the app to control the fan. According to the developer, it is possible to network the unit to the internet router, however, the unit cannot handle WPA2. It’s difficult to understand why since most routers nowadays used the more secure option. WPA was surpassed in 2005. In addition, WPA3 should be coming up next year. The other problem is that the units WiFi signal is weak at best, and the signal is easily lost throughout the house. Still, it’s better than having to run upstairs to turn the switch on.
Still not working
Yes, this is the second review I’m leaving for this app because it. Is. THAT. Bad. Coming from someone who never writes reviews, this should really hold extra weight. Constant error messages. No response from the company to help. The last time I interacted with their support team, I was told I wasn’t close enough to the unit. Total BS. I was IN my attic. I’m afraid I have to get the wired system simply because this is straight up UNUSABLE. I was so happy with my previous setup. This is super disappointing. How can it get that bad so quickly?!! Do yourself a favor. DO. NOT. BUY. THIS. SYSTEM. It’s worthless.
WiFi set up
This is the most frustrating app to get set up with WiFi to the phone. Every year it’s a struggle. When connecting to the units WiFi I get the message “password Incorrect” I use the myfan password. I’ve restarted my phone, delete the app and reinstall. I thought with the new app that it was switched to in April 2020, it would be less of a struggle. Nope...even more so than before. Please update this and fix the horrible glitches.
