I have to finish installing a fan / light fixture in the downstairs bathroom tonight. I started last night and figured it would be quick work but it ended up being a lot harder than I expected to take out the old unit.
The biggest surprise – the fan just blows into the dead space in the ceiling and doesn’t connect to a line that goes to the outside of the house. WTF? Does this mean all of these years poo mist has just been collecting up there?
Exactly, but more importantly, moisture. Get your ass (nh) up there and make sure you don’t have any mold issues. Venting into space like that is a real no-no. It needs to be vented out the side wall or the roof…or cut the electricity to it and seal it up
