Default fan hole size in window

Ive a broken window pane in a bathroom,
i went to the glaziers today and asked for
a new pane with a circular hole for a fan
but he asked how big a hole
I said standard size
but he said there is no standard.

I was thinking of putting a cheap plastic vent there at first
but maybe later a humidity controlled vent,
but i have no experience of these.

Any advice please,
what size hole,
what to put in there?

George

the size that your fan fits into. What else?

I would suggest get a fan then get the hole cut, bearing in mind it
maybe the diameter of the fixing kit that requires cutting and not the
fan itself.

i bought a kit on ebay and then they sent me a copy of the instructions which said 105mm hole.

I've had a hole cut in the new glass.

They gave a list of compatible fans which i havent yet had time to investigate.
