Bathroom Exhaust Fan Turns on by Itself
Comments (3)Thanks for your response, nini804. I was hoping your suggestion was the correct one. But it turns out that the wall switch failed in such a way that the circuit remained open, or on, all the time. The good news is that it is a little quieter after being cleaned!...See Moreexhaust fan in bathroom question
Comments (2)Bathroom fans move much less air than a whole house fan. I don't think you will have a problem. If the bathroom fan is going to be used to remove moisture after a shower then I suggest wiring it to a timer. Running the fan for 20-30 minutes during and after the shower should be sufficient....See MoreBathroom exhaust fan problem - please help
Comments (8)Thanks for your thoughts. The vent levers to the outside wall were opening fully when the fan was on, thus eliminating the possibility of 'stuck levers' or any thing disconnected as being the problem. So, I called Broan and spoke with a man who said it sounded like the motor wasn't doing it's job and in spite of the fan being out of warranty, he was very generous in his offer to send a new motor at no cost. I'm a Broan fan for life as a result. On Monday, our handyman is coming to install the new motor and use spray foam around the opening to the attic which should eliminate the 'attic smell'. I think that sealing up this gap will also improve the fan 'draw'.
