No simply paste la bro, i option the tukang to put at most left/right size rather than middle , a house is use to stay , if wan pretty u really need skip the exhaust fan , whatever exhaust fan won't make ur toilet look pretty unless u putting ur exhaust fan on ceilling , and the size is 10inch , there is smaller one but i rather choose big than small because bigger is more effective , as i say the house is use to stay not show room biggrin.gif


I'm enjoying to open hot shower without bluring my bathroom mirror biggrin.gif Unlike those hotel or without exhaust fan , just bath 5 minutes whole room feel warm and mirror start haze

Nop it cant come in, because when u off the exhaust fan, it will close down the cover, from my old house using this brand Khind , now moving new how so stil choose this brand, more common, less problem, and most important is the price is cheap too

Exhaust fan is a must for bathroom, its pity for 2nd person to use the toilet after the first one use , i hate when going in the toilet feel warm or after the smell after big project =.=

I think the front is a cover only. You can install yourself also. Freaking easy.

I think the price is rm188. You can ask idoblu.

wow , RM188 rclxub.gif , my one cost me RM6x only sweat.gif But the out look really look better than the common exhaust fan la , but i can buy 3 pcs sweat.gif And 1 more thing is i need to put the Grill on the window , so actually after putting the grill , whole toilet already look not really nice le , landed house without grill is dangerous sweat.gif even my 2nd floor room1/room2/master room toilet also install grill

I got think to go for glass exhaust fan before , but the wayar will gantung at the middle like that , not really look good , summore very small , also dunno effective or not , so i ask tukang which size i can fit nicely to my window , and we found that 10inch is the ideal size , ngam ngam upper and lower , and the wire can hide if i put most left/right side smile.gif

You can made a 8" opening on the wall and install the exhaust fan, this way you have a neat installation, and the exhaust fan don't need a grill. Unless you worry someone can go through the 8" opening. This way made the house neat. Don't have to be nice, but making it neat is good. After all is a house you going to stay.

You can bore the hole at the wall beside the window. More nice look right? Than you can full grill the window nicely. If you insist on window glass, than put it at the corner of the glass window. So no see the wire lor.

Than don't make the grill like jail la. Give some modern nice looking grill. Kasi interior design sikit ma. smile.gif

This old design exhaust fan is already grandmother design. See also boring liau. tongue.gif

Nop la , when u turn on the toilet light , the exhaust fan will follow turning on , so when u taking bath the haze will be suck out , and i tell u , u will enjoy singing while taking bath biggrin.gif Because u won't feel hot biggrin.gif highly recommend to install exhaust fan inside toilet

If ur toilet stil naked (mean havent renovate anything) , and ur budget allow , go for modern exhaust fan design if u like modern , i have 4 toilet + 1 kitchen , if buy RM188 x 5 = RM940 and installation blah blah RM1k++ already , this exhaust fan i just spend less than RM500 include install biggrin.gif

i installed ceiling mount exhaust fan. why do i get foul smell whenever i turn on the exhaust fan? there is no odor when it's switched off, only smell the odor (smell like sewer) when it is on.

i opened the ceiling manhole, no smell detected.
it's not coming from the drain floor trap either.

what else could it be ?

When you use toilet during day time, you switch on light too? If not, if do big business during day time, the toilet will smell also right? Can install with 2 different type of switch i.e. follow toilet light switch and also have a separate switch for day time use?

The exhaust fan just suck the smelly air away from bathroom. It will dry up when the sun heat up the ceiling tiles. No need duct. But its different with cooker hood bcoz the air contain oil & fat.

Yeah, partially opened. you are suggesting that the smell is from outside? My toilet is at second storey, if the fan can attract and suck the foul smell from outside, it's really unbelievable. Later i try shut the window and test again

Possible the ventilation fan suck the manhole / drain opening air our / from wash basin. This is only possible if there no U trap beneath it.

Or

Your windows close to the sewage breather pipe. Usually is locate at the roof, but some maybe just outside 2nd floor.
