Hey man, nice Vid. And don't forget to spray foam the inside of the exhaust vent, just to keep older man winter outside. Cheers.

A lot of it is common sense. You should have seen the OLD exhaust fan I am replacing. The fan was installed in the 70's. It had heat, light and vent and could run combination of these functions. It is only a 4 foot run on the first floor. Their is also a second floor above where the vent is. You did a great job on yours. Wish mine was that easy.

Code violation (irc) screws can not pertrude more than 1/8 in the inside of the duct. It is a good video just watch out for those screws.

Vinny, Great job and good info along the way as you completed each step. Have you ever installed one of these on an house that doesn't have a vinyl siding low enough to cut thru? If the house foundation has stucco... is there a way to cut thru that? My fear is running into the concrete foundation. Without the correct tools that could be a PITA to deal with just for an exhaust fan. Also, does the exhaust pipe have to run in a straight line to the outside or can it take turns?

@vinnythehandyman Жыл бұрын

The exterior was concrete board. Stucco would be same process. Once you start in stucco the key hole saw will walk through chicken wire and then you will have 2 sheets of plywood and your done. If by chance you crack a little stucco just use caulking and paint. Yes you can have turns as well. Also, the framing is above foundation in most cases. Especially if you have a basement.

Did you make sure the damper flap has enough clearance to open up when the fan is on? The screws in the damper portion seem like they would block the damper from opening.

@MAGAMAN 11 ай бұрын

You don't use screws on there. They are supporting metal that is about as fragile as aluminum foil. If he didn't put the tape on it, the inspector would definitely fail that because it is 100% wrong.

@vinnythehandyman Жыл бұрын

Go to your big box store and in the hammer drill section they sell carbide core mason saws for concrete. I would use the blue Tapcon mason screws. In the event you can’t get a carbide bit then you can use a marker and draw a circle then hit with chisel and hammer. Best of luck!

What kind of screws did you use to screw the vent to the siding? Did you say you pre-drilled the holes for the screws?

@vinnythehandyman Жыл бұрын

I used self tapping stainless steel 1/4” framing screws to screw HVAC together. These screws help to pre drill holes easier in metal. Then I used pointer drywall screws to secure to home.

@@vinnythehandyman This is 100% wrong. The distance is determined by the ducting size and the power (CFM) of the fan. For example, if you have a 125-CFM rated bathroom exhaust fan with a smooth-walled duct whose diameter stands at 5 inches, the duct’s length shouldn’t go over 51 feet. If you are using flexible ducting, which is not smooth, the distance will be less. If you are using a smaller ducting, the distance will be even less. If you are using a less powerful fan, the distance is even less. Simple rule of thumb woudl be to keep it as short as possible. I would avoid going over 8 feet with 4 inch flexible ducting.

Not for a basement in Colorado. This was a 2 story house so going through roof would be a monumental task. It’s just air from a fan. Even sewer vent pipes and be vented on the side.

@@randywilkinson2763 The caulking should go around the hole (with a small gap at the bottom) and around the top and sides (not the bottom) of the back of the cover. Compression will make the caulking much more effective and help keep it in place even if it starts to dry out over the year. Smearing caulking all over the outside of things is not the correct way to do it and it also looks like crap.
