A bathroom exhaust fan has to move at least 50 cubic feet of air per minute and send it outdoors, not into the attic, to keep a Western Washington bathroom from growing mold. A licensed electrician replaces a worn or noisy fan with a quiet humidity-sensing model in one to two hours, or installs a fan where there has never been one, including the duct and the roof or wall cap. Humidity-sensing fans switch themselves on in the shower and off when the room is dry.

What We Find

When to Replace It

Loud but moving no air

The motor is worn and the damper is stuck. Hold a tissue to the grille — if it does not stick, the fan is not working.

Mirror fogs, paint peels

Either the fan is undersized or it is dumping into the attic. We check where the duct actually goes.

Black spots in the shower corners

Moisture that is not leaving the room. A humidity-sensing fan fixes the behavior problem too — nobody has to remember to run it.

No fan at all

Common in older Kent, Renton and Tacoma homes with a window instead. We cut in a fan, run the duct, and fit the cap.

Remodel

A new tub or shower changes the room. Size the fan for the new volume and move it over the shower if the layout allows.

Dripping in winter

Warm wet air meets a cold uninsulated duct and condenses. Insulated duct and a proper cap stop the drip.

Why Next Phase

Small Jobs, Taken Seriously

A dead outlet gets the same licensed electrician and the same code as a panel upgrade. Bad connections are how house fires start.

FAQ

Common Questions

The rule of thumb is 1 CFM per square foot of floor, with a 50 CFM minimum. A 5 by 8 bathroom needs 50 CFM; a large master bath with a separate shower room may need 80 to 110 CFM, or a fan over the shower plus one over the tub.

No, and most of the fans we replace do. Venting into the attic rots the sheathing and grows mold above the ceiling. The duct has to run to a roof cap or a wall cap with a damper.

Fan noise is rated in sones. Older builder-grade fans are 3 to 4 sones; a good replacement is under 1 sone and barely audible. We fit the quiet ones by default.

A like-for-like replacement on the existing circuit does not. A new fan with new wiring does, and we pull the electrical permit. Cutting a roof cap does not need a separate permit in most of our area.

It can, but a humidity-sensing fan or a timer switch works better: the fan keeps running after the shower until the room is dry, which is when the moisture actually leaves.

Replacing a fan with one that fits the same opening and duct is a short job. A larger housing, a new duct to the outside or a ceiling with no attic above adds to it. You get the exact price after we look, before any work starts, and you approve it first.

Sometimes. If it is silent, we check the switch and the wiring first. If it hums and does not spin, the motor has seized. Some fans take a new motor; for most, a complete new fan costs about the same, is far quieter, and comes with a warranty. We tell you which before doing either.

Yes. Most fans in a bathroom between floors are replaced from below, through the ceiling opening. We use a fan made for it, reconnect the duct through the hole, and trim the opening so no drywall repair is needed in most cases.

Yes. A fan-light combination usually runs on the wiring that is already there; separate switches for the fan and the light need one more wire. A fan with a heater needs its own 20-amp circuit, which is new wiring with a permit, and we pull it.

Yes. It means a new fan, a switch, a cable, and a duct through the roof or an outside wall, under a permit. Every house is different, so we look first and give you the exact price for that bathroom rather than a guess over the phone.

Yes. Bathroom ceiling fan, bath fan, vent fan and exhaust fan all mean the fan in the ceiling that pulls damp air out of the room. A ceiling fan with blades is a different job, and we install those too.
