In this video I show how I installed a 100 cfm bathroom extractor fan using 4" PVC rigid duct.
I chose rigid PVC duct as it has a smooth interior surface unlike the regular flexible ducts. A smooth interior means better air flow which maximizes the effectiveness of the fan to move air out of the bathroom.
I show how I ran the duct in the attic and explain how I positioned and cut a hole through the stucco to the exterior for the vent.
Here is what I used
Fan: Delta Breeze 100 cfm www.homedepot.com/p/Delta-Bre...
Duct/Pipe: 4" Drain Pipe www.homedepot.com/p/Advanced-...
Fittings: 4" PVC for example www.homedepot.com/p/NDS-PVC-S...
Exhaust Vent: Builders Edge 4" Exhaust Vent www.lowes.com/pd/Builders-Edg.... NOTE: as discussed in the comments this is designed for new installation where siding is fitted over the flange after installing the vent. I was able to use it as retro-fit due to the thin (1" thickness) of my existing 1970s stucco. For a retro-fit you may need to go with another style vent if your wall is more than about 1" thick.
