Your next stop should be your local Council's Environment and Health Department. There are regulations relating to noise levels (dB) and time of day for generation of noise levels. Generally speaking I think you are not allowed to run ventilation systems after 10:00 pm if the system can be heard in the room of an adjoining neighbour.
If the owner of the ventitlation equipment, who I presume is the Owners Corporation, does not comply with regulations then Council can issue an order under both the Protection of Environment & Operations Act 1997 and The Local Government Act 1993.
Good Luck.
