How to install exhaust fan in downstairs bathroom?

jrmad

Hi all, I’d like to install an exhaust fan in my down stairs bathroom, however I think it is near impossible, as the walls are tiled to the ceiling and the roof is a concrete slab. There is a window to the side of the shower with a PowerPoint underneath, what is the best way to ventilate my bathroom? Given I can’t really exhaust the air anywhere but through the window and it would be impossible to hard wire unless I rip up some tiles to get the cable to the window spot. I can’t seem to find any exhaust fans that have a plug on them.

Hello @jrmad 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us and thanks for sharing your question about adding an exhaust fan for your bathroom.

Before I offer a recommendation, would it be possible for you to post a picture of the window and position of the power point in the bathroom? This will give our members a better idea of the window size and how far the power point is from the window. Once we see the pictures, we'll be able to assess the overall situation and provide recommendations on how to proceed.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
