Another one of those projects around the house that was long overdue!
Our bathroom exhaust fan was venting into the attic instead of outside. Knowing the moisture problems that could cause, we stopped using the fan until I could get it properly vented outdoors.
Finally got around to installing a proper exterior vent!
Bathroom exhaust fans should vent outside, not into the attic. Otherwise, that warm, moist air can contribute to condensation, mould and damage over time.
It's one of those things you might not notice when looking at a home, but it's certainly worth checking.
Over the years, working on my own home has taught me that sometimes the things you don't see are just as important as the things you do.
Just sharing a little firsthand experience that might help someone else.
