Default Bath room fan CFM ratings

I did the usual CFM calculation for my bathroom and came up with 68 CFM. So
anything rated 68 CFM and above would work. I've been looking at 80 CFM
fans and also 100 CFM fans. If I go with a 100 CFM fan (or even 110) would
that be too powerful for my small bathroom or it doesn't matter?

Thanks,
Walter


Generally, the higher the CFM the more noise. If noise is not an
issue, go with the higher CFM. A wall timer for the fan circuit is a
good thing too.
