I'm going to replace my 35 year old bathroom fan-light-heater combo that has been in the house since it was built. The new one is also fan-light-heat.
I haven't done this before and am looking for some guidelines on how to install the new one, purchased from Lowes-it is a Broan brand. The old one is a Chromolox brand.
The new one appears to be the same size, or roughly the same size, as the old one. I purchased a new three button switch for the new fan.
The old fan has always vented into the attic and I will initially vent the new fan into the attic. I hope to change this later, but I haven't had any problems with mildew, etc. The attic is somewhat spacious-house about 2200 ft., northern Texas.
The entire bathroom is on a 20 amp circuit. I would like to place the new fan on separate 20 amp circuit, but will not do this right away.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.
