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 Ian, Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

The term excellent or incredible does not seem high enough praise for the Twintech Heating and cooling company that recently replaced our 15 year old furnace. To start with, the response from Dave at Twintech to our original pricing request was the quickest and most professional of the 5 prices we received which included two of the primary natural gas providers. The Twintech pricing was the most competitive by a considerable margin.
We had Dave visit our home to confirm all pricing which he did and scheduled us for next day installation which was not offered my the majority of the other providers.
The installation; the team arrived on time and provided coverings to all of the hardwood flooring and stairs and proceeded with the removal and reinstallation of the new furnace, the workers predicated six hours and were completed in five hours. I have to mention how courteous and polite the workers were each time we interacted with them from start to finish.
The final result was amazing, all materials were cleaned up and removed from the house and the workmanship very impressive.
One feature that really stood out for me which shows a high level of professionalism was that we had various condensation hoses from the furnace , humidifier and an air filtration unit meeting at the one drain, the installation crew ran PVC tubing including elbows along two sides of the furnace to guide the hoses into one PVC tube at the drain, it looks great!
When the install was completed and tested the Twintech technician guided us through the features and recommendation's for care of the new furnace.
We highly recommend Twintech to anyone for the outstanding service provided to us.

by Stephen, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I didn't hesitate to call Twintech in for a 2nd time as they did an outstanding job installing my new furnace last year. This time my 18 year old air conditioner was on its last legs. Greg and the team are top notch, highly skilled technicians. The job was executed in a timely and professional manner. Greg was extremely thorough and went the extra mile to make sure everything was operating efficiently. Lastly, Dave is a true gentleman and really made the customer experience pleasurable and worry free. Always remember that good work ain't cheap and cheap work ain't good.

by Derek, Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

It's so hard to find solid companies these days, but I was very pleased to find one in Twintech. Greg and his crew were very clean, respectful and professional. We were most impressed at how all the things they said they would do, were done. Sounds strange, but usually when a contractor comes to your home they say they will take care of this and that, make sure this is done, etc but when the work starts you have to constantly remind them of your previous discussions. Greg ensured every item he said he would do was done, no reminders required. The work was done right, at a fair price and on time. We will be sure to call them when our A/C unit dies (fingers crossed that's not going to happen too soon :) )

by Patrick, Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Replaced our aging hot water tank with a tankless system. Excellent work, fast efficient and clean.

Walked us through the new system and recommended maintenance schedule.

This is our second time working with TwinTech and we are very happy with the quality of their work and professionalism.

by Troy, Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Efficient work and great follow up by the team at Twin Tech. Great product and communication.

by Peter, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

On coldest night of the year our furnace quit. At 8:40 in the morning Greg arrived and gave us a diagnosis and a recommendation. By 2:30 we had a new furnace and were warm again. Great company. Great customer service. Good reasonable price.

Twin tech team was very efficient and prompt. They provided a quote within hours of request and got the job done on time. No disruption to home function. We would highly recommend this team. Job well done.

by John from Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Our furnace bit the dust, and Twintech came out to troubleshoot and diagnose the problem within a couple of hours. Mitch was super helpful, patient, and answered all of our questions. When we decided to get the furnace replaced, the crew was over first thing the next morning and did a fantastic job. Not only did they complete the job in a few hours, but they cleaned up and respected our house as they went, and answered all of our follow-up questions. I've used Twintech for our HVAC needs in the past and will continue to do so. I'd recommend them to anyone, and it feels good to support a local, family-owned business.

by Ryan k on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Dave and the Twintech team were fabulous from day 1 and helped us through the process to identifying a new furnace and AC unit. This was our first time through this process and Dave did a thorough job explaining all the components and was very patience answering all our questions. Dave provided great insights and fair pricing.

The Twintech team did an awesome installation. Very clean and efficient. I would highly recommended their service.

by Louise in Scarborough on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We had a new Amana furnace installed by Twintech and we were very pleased with the installation. It is nice to have a warm house again.
