White pedestal tub with a brass filler under a tall arched black window, exposed brick walls and a black and white checkered marble floor
Fan

Without a window that opens, code wants an exhaust fan ducted outdoors. One that empties into the attic breeds mold up there.

Light

Sconces on each side of the mirror light your face evenly. A single fixture overhead casts shadows.

Lights and fans

Lights and fans: common questions

01Is a fan required?

Yes, unless a window opens. The duct must end outdoors.

02What fan size do I need?

Take the floor area in square feet; that is roughly the CFM you want.

03Does a fan swap need a permit?

Usually, because of the wiring and the duct.
