Sure cuts down on mold accumulation.

Hello,

A new roof was installed this past May and I had the roofer already
add the exhaust vents. What is a fair price to have them installed?
Also can anyone recommend a good quality one?

Thanks,

The sensor is asking a lot, do you really think this is a good idea or
even necessary? *I put in 30-minute wall timers in the bathroom fans
which works well after a steamy shower--absolutely no mold in 16
years.

I also went with timers over humidistats so the fans can easily be
used any time someone wants to - and they were much cheaper.

However, the *main* reason I installed timers in the first place is
because no one else in the family was able to figure out how to use
the toggle switch.

It seems that everyone knew that "up equals on" but apparently no one
knew that "down equals off".
