Default Where would you put this bathroom outlet (pics)

While on the subject, does a bathroom outlet need to be a seperate 20A
circuit, or can it feed the bath fan and light as well?

Unless you plan to tear off the sheet rock, putting new wiring under
the window will be very difficult. Think electric tooth brush for the
best location for the outlet.

Also, bathrooms receptacles have to be GFCI protected. Blow dryers
are pretty power hungry. You can put the light and a fan on the
circuit if the light/fan is not more than 10A and I have never seen a
fart fan that was.

Also, if the receptacle is the only receptacle on the circuit, it has
to be a 20A receptacle.
