Bath Fan Package Pricing for Clarksville, MD

Do exhaust fans need love?

Exhaust fans are in most Clarksville household bathrooms. Yet, as familiar as they are to Clarksville homeowners, several important factors are consistently overlooked.  

5 things about bathroom fans that are overlooked:

1. Most exhaust fans installed in Clarksville, MD, homes vent moisture directly into the attic.
          --This causes mold
          --This accelerates the age of the roof
          --This degrades existing insulation
2. Bathroom exhaust fan ducts running through an attic can "sweat" during a Clarksville, MD, winter if not insulated properly.
3. Different fan models exhaust different amounts of air per minute.
4. If an exhaust fan makes noise, that does not mean it works right.
5. Incorrectly installed fans can act as gateways to the attic, increasing energy energy bills

A bathroom exhaust fan is important for indoor air quality and should be installed correctly!  

Answer for Clarksville Homeowners:

5 things correctly installed bathroom fans do have:

• The exhaust fan damper is vented through the side wall or roof.
• A bath fan should be measured for how much air it is exhausting after installation.
• A bathroom fan duct should be insulated to R-8 in the Clarksville climate.
• Ducts should be fastened with zip ties and properly taped where necessary.
• The fan housing should be air-sealed after installation to prevent air leakage.
