Bathroom Exhaust Fan- Its Need And Installation Technique

Bathroom is a place where due to the presence of moisture and humidity

, organisms like mold, spores and mildew generally build up. This further causes odor and stains in the bathroom. Mold and mildew build up causes the paint to peel off the walls and ceiling. Moreover the bathroom door and cabinet doors also get deteriorated from warping.

Seeing all these things, today's market provides us with variety of products that destroy the spores and clean the stains that the spores usually leave behind. However, more appropriately one should use a technique which can prohibit the growth of such micro organism any further.

Well, installing an exhaust fan in the bathroom is the best option. These work by pushing the moist and humid air out of the bathroom and thereby preventing the mold growth. Setting up the exhaust fan is not a tough job. Here is the step by step technique to install it. But before that make sure you have all the necessary items like bathroom exhaust fan, hacksaw and some other carpentry tools.

There are several different styles of exhaust fans, as well as levels of quality. So, it is better to choose the one you want to install. Moreover, decision should also be done beforehand whether you want to go with the ceiling mount or the wall mount exhaust fans.

Draw a mark on the bathroom ceiling of size 1/8 inches where you'd like to install the vent fan and cut it using a handsaw.

Next step is to make wiring with the main light and for this look over the wiring leading to the bathroom main light. This is where you will wire in the exhaust fan. Connect the exhaust fan wiring to the house wiring following the wiring schematic provided with the fan.

Bathroom exhaust fans need ducting to move the air from the bathroom to the exterior of the building. Most bathroom exhaust fans transfer the bathroom air up into the attic and out through the side of the house using metal ducting. Care should be taken while venting by keeping the duct vent downwardly. This will keep the dirt and rain from coming in the hose.

Since, electricity is not the right place to experiment, better shut off the main power supply when indulging into any of the electrical task. Moreover, hire the services of an expert in case of confusion.
