We hired Solid to replace our aging hot water tank. Zach was very knowledgeable in explaining our options, and the crew that did the install were efficient and professional. We wouldn't hesitate to use Solid again in the future!

Solid plumbing did our bathroom build/reno (through MAC renovations) and we were so happy with the work they did. DJ was very professional and kind and even when above and beyond to make sure things were running correctly. Highly recommend!

Solid Plumbing owner Zach is very personable and he provided quick attendance to my home when I had a plumbing issue last week. His staff that I met during my reno in 2021 and this latest issue are all very friendly and pleasant. I would definitely recommend Solid Plumbing.

This is the third time I have used Solid Plumbing to help with my plumbing problems. The service has always been excellent and the staff are polite and pleasant to deal with. Recently when my pipes froze they really saved me because they came late in the day; fixed not only the original problem with a burst pipe but 3 more that showed up; and made sure all was well before they left. The next day it snowed blocking the road so we would have had no water for many more days. I would not hesitate to use their services again or recommend them to others. Thanks a lot Solid.

Solid Plumbing is great! They are very professional quick to respond. Zack and his guys are really knowledgeable and donā€™t waste any time getting the job done. Every time I have used them the invoice is always less than I expected. On top of all that these guys are very pleasant to work with. 1000 times better than my old plumber.

Modern Smart Bathroom Fans

Todayā€™s bathroom exhaust fans offer advanced features that go beyond traditional ventilation. Modern smart bathroom fans provide:

Automatic Humidity Sensing: These fans automatically turn on when humidity levels rise, ensuring your bathroom remains dry and free from moisture build-up.

Quiet Operation: Designed to operate quietly, these fans minimize noise while effectively ventilating your space.

Energy Efficiency: Smart fans are energy-efficient, helping to reduce your energy consumption and utility bills.

Integrated Lighting: Some models come with built-in LED lighting, providing bright, energy-efficient illumination.

Bluetooth Connectivity: Enjoy built-in speakers that connect to your devices via Bluetooth, allowing you to play music or listen to podcasts while you shower.

Sizing the Correct Bathroom Fan

Choosing the right size bathroom exhaust fan is crucial for effective ventilation. The size of the fan is determined by the bathroom's square footage and the required air exchange rate. Hereā€™s a quick guide:

Measure Your Bathroom: Calculate the square footage by multiplying the length by the width of your bathroom.

Determine the CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute): The fanā€™s capacity should match the size of the bathroom. As a rule of thumb, you need at least 1 CFM per square foot of bathroom space. For example, a 50 square foot bathroom would require a fan with a minimum of 50 CFM.

Consider Additional Features: If your bathroom has a high ceiling, you may need a higher CFM rating. Additional factors such as the presence of a shower or bathtub may also necessitate a more powerful fan.

Options Available for Bathroom Exhaust Fans

We offer a wide range of bathroom exhaust fan options to suit your needs:

Standard Fans: Reliable and efficient, ideal for basic ventilation needs.

Smart Fans: Equipped with modern features such as humidity sensors, automatic operation, and energy-saving modes.

Fans with Lighting: Integrated LED lights for dual functionality.

Ultra-Quiet Fans: Designed for minimal noise, perfect for bathrooms near bedrooms or living areas.

Decorative Fans: Stylish designs that complement your bathroomā€™s decor.

Upgrading an Existing Fan

If your current bathroom exhaust fan is noisy, inefficient, or ineffective, it might be time for an upgrade. Here are some signs that you need to upgrade or replace your fan:

Excessive Noise: Older fans often become noisy as they age, indicating that the motor or other components are wearing out.

Poor Ventilation: If your bathroom remains steamy or develops mold and mildew despite the fan running, itā€™s likely not powerful enough.

Increased Humidity: Persistent humidity levels in your bathroom can damage walls, ceilings, and fixtures.

Frequent Repairs: If youā€™re frequently repairing your fan, investing in a new, more efficient model can save you money in the long run.

A bathroom exhaust fan is essential for removing excess moisture, reducing humidity, and eliminating odours. Proper ventilation prevents mold and mildew growth, protects your walls and ceilings from moisture damage, and improves overall indoor air quality.

The size of the exhaust fan you need is determined by the square footage of your bathroom. A general rule is to have at least 1 CFM (cubic feet per minute) per square foot of bathroom space. For example, a 50 square foot bathroom would require a fan with a minimum of 50 CFM.

Smart bathroom fans offer several benefits, including:

Yes, you can upgrade your existing bathroom exhaust fan with a newer, more efficient model. This can help reduce noise, improve ventilation, and enhance overall performance.

Typically, a bathroom exhaust fan should be replaced every 10 years or sooner if it becomes noisy, ineffective, or requires frequent repairs.

Signs that you may need to upgrade your bathroom exhaust fan include:

  • Excessive noise during operation

Installing a high-quality exhaust fan is a key step in improving bathroom air quality. Additionally, ensuring the fan is properly sized and regularly maintained will help keep your bathroom free from moisture and pollutants.

While some homeowners may choose to install a bathroom exhaust fan themselves, it is often best to hire a professional to ensure proper installation and compliance with local building codes.
