The Importance of Having Bathroom Exhaust Fans at Home

From odour control to safety, there are many reasons why having bathroom exhaust fans in your home is essential.


Most homes come with exhaust fans that are already installed, but not all of them are effective. In order to get the most out of your bathroom exhaust fan, it is important to have one that will provide all of its necessary functions.


The Purpose of a Bathroom Exhaust Fan


What exactly is the primary purpose for having an exhaust fan? It is to remove the moisture out of a room. Bathroom exhaust fans help control and eliminate bathroom odours. In addition, they also add to the safety of the home and everyone living in it by reducing fumes from cleaning agents that can potentially cause health-related issues.


ODOUR CONTROL


One of the main reasons for having an exhaust fan is for odour control. For instance, if an unpleasant odour occurs in the bathroom, the exhaust fan can easily draw out the smell. The ventilation system thus enables you to keep your bathroom well-maintained and at the same time, offering a clean atmosphere for the next person who will enter.


HUMIDITY REDUCTION


In terms of the upkeep of your bathroom, reducing the humidity is vital. Did you know that excessive moisture can wreak havoc on your bathroom walls by causing paint and wallpaper to peel? In extreme cases, excessive moisture can even cause doors to warp! Most importantly, humidity causes mold to accumulate. These spores grow rapidly and they can be difficult to get rid of. Thus, it is crucial to have bathroom exhaust fans installed to prevent this from happening.


SAFETY


Bathrooms are cleaned with aggressive chemicals which cause a variety of health issues when inhaled. This is a major concern for the elderly, small children, or those with current lung conditions. Also, if the bathroom is already experiencing a problem with molds, then the fan will help remove the buildup of spores in the air. In turn, this will help slow down the mold’s growth rate.


Have HVAC Experts Install Your Bathroom Exhaust Fans


If you are planning on having bathroom exhaust fans installed in your home, make sure to setup an appointment with us first. Poor installation involves lack of insulation – this can cause heat to escape into the attic. This can all be avoided with the appropriate exhaust fan as well as proper installation.

See What Our Customers Are Saying:

by Nancy H. from Oshawa on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Work was performed in a clean and timely manner. The furnace and metal work was performed by the Twintech team (did not require separate contractor to do the metal work). Energy audit was arranged and promised rebates were received. The overall price was very competitive. We have recommended Twintech to several of our friends and family. Awesome job.

by Syd from Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Grant and Greg installed a heating and AC system in our new Linwood post and beam home. Post and beam can be challenging structures for running ductwork and their high ceilings and open concept frequently frustrate efforts at balancing air flow and controlling temperatures. But these guys did it and did it right the first time. Even the building inspector was impressed with what he saw. More importantly, the boys brought a high degree of trust and integrity to the job. Something in short supply these days.

I have used Twintech many times over the years. They always arrive quickly and get the issue fixed. The most recent incident was when my air conditioner broke last week I called Greg at 11:30am and he was at my home by 2:30pm he had the unit fixed by 3:30pm. Twintech are very reliable and honest and they are experts in the field. I have already recommended them to many of my friends. I would not use anyone but them for my heating and air conditioning issues.

by Kate A in Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I would highly recommend these guys, professional, fast and competitive pricing. I moved into this place with no working AC unit with a 8 month baby, he was able to come with in a week to fix even in the busy summer days. He really values his customers , I am already recommending to my neighbors.

by Private User in Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Very impressed they arrive to quote even though I had forgotten to call them back to confirm date & time. They showed the day before installation to deliver the unit. Returned the next day as promised at 9am. Project was completed in a professional manner. They even fixed a few things that they noticed were not installed correctly, or to code by previous heating & air contractors we had at our residence before. Would recommend this company to everyone!

by Private User from Bowmanville on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Greg removed old oil furnace and oil tank from basement relocated new Napoleon propane furnace to allow duct work to be rerouted to a much more suitable location. Moved air conditioner to the new furnace. Dave recommended two available grants to assist with cost. They kept to their original quoted price which was substantially lower than a competitors for the same furnace and work. They completed the work as stated when stated and left the area clean and tidy. We are very pleased with the outcome.
