Are you saying that when the power is tuned on the fan spins? I had a B&Q fan and it would drive in both directions in order to direct the draft downwards or upwards. (They made a point in the instructions NOT to operate that switch while the fan was running however.). If the fan is spinning under power you will have draft up or down anything else is not possible.
