If your home or certain rooms within your home are attracting humidity and moisture, it can cause a number of problems. An exhaust fan can be installed to improve ventilation in places like these, preventing the growth of contaminants as well as peeling paint or wallpaper and damaged wooden floors and doors.
An exhaust fan can be particularly helpful in a bathroom. Not only can it help maintain an environment that will be comfortable when you exit the shower, but it will work to quickly de-fog your mirrors so that you can get ready more efficiently each day. We can also install an exhaust fan with heating capabilities for added comfort during winter or to help create a spa-like bathroom experience.
The kitchen is another area requiring added ventilation, particularly above the stove and oven area, where there may be smoky conditions. An exhaust fan will redirect any smoky odors and clear them up so that you can cook without worrying about setting off an alarm and having a lingering smell.
If you’ve been looking for a way to improve ventilation in your home, a new exhaust fan is the ideal solution. At Hoffman Electrical & A/C, we can provide you with expert exhaust fan installation or replacement services.

You can test to see if your exhaust fan is working with a few simple steps. First, turn your exhaust fan on and find a sheet of paper or dollar bill. Then, use your palm and press the paper to the fan. If the paper stays stuck to the grill by suction of the fan, your exhaust fan is working properly. If it falls, you’ll want to make sure it’s free of dust buildup then consider having it looked at by a professional.
Exhaust fans can last around 10 years with proper maintenance and use. If you notice that yours is louder than normal, not removing moisture, or slow to start, these could be signs that it’s starting to become ineffective.
The short answer is yes! Bathroom exhaust fans help remove excess moisture, prevent mold and mildew buildup, and prevent bacteria overgrowth. If left unchecked, these issues can damage wallpaper, paint, and drywall. Mold spores, even from an area as small as a bathroom, can quickly spread to other areas of the home. Keeping your bathroom exhaust fan in good condition can help keep indoor air quality healthy.
Yes. Running the bathroom fan during showers removes excess moisture from the air produced by the warm water. Removing this excess moisture helps prevent the growth of mold and bacteria. But don’t turn it off right after. Running the fan for about 30 minutes after your shower can help rid the bathroom of any remaining moisture.
