Home Comfort Specialist Back in the day, I spent a good amount of time with my window and siding customers pointing out how the exterior parts of a house work together.

Frequently Asked QuestionsHow long does it take to install a new fan in my bathroom? The time it takes varies a little from house to house. Generally, it takes between three and five hours and a better estimate can be given after the initial investigation. How does my roof get sealed if the fan is vented through the shingles? As former roofing contractor, I am familiar with roofing techniques and the proper sealants to use in order to keep your home dry and safe. How much does getting a fan installed cost? Generally, a bathroom exhaust fan replacement project can range from $850 - $1250 depending on several factors that should be assessed prior to the installation. Can I have a switch added so that my lights and my new fan are able to turn on independently? In most cases, yes. I can add a switch dedicated to the fan, however a proper assessment must be completed prior to the installation and generally, this can only be done on the upper floor bathrooms. Are the new fans less noisy than the older fans? Yes! The new exhaust fans are sleeker and equal to or less than one sone (very quiet!). Can I get a bathroom exhaust fan with a light to brighten up my bathroom? Yes! In most cases, we can add a fan with a bright light which is a great addition to a dimly lit bathroom. What size bath fan should I get for my bathroom? Most fans nowadays come with multiple settings for flexibility. Generally, most average sized bathrooms will be fine with 50-100 CFM (cubic feet per minute). I see bath fans online for $79, why does it cost so much? Each exhaust fan retrofit in a house has several challenges that must be weighed into the overall cost. In addition to the time it takes, there are material costs and other overhead to take into consideration such as proper tools, knowledge, licensing and insurance. |
