How to remove and install bathroom exhaust fan 

Outstanding presentation, I was ready to call an electrician to do the job, you actually have saved me over $100.00 I am over 80 years old & had no problem doing it THANK YOU

I've put this off for ages thinking I'd need a sparky to do it Thanks Bill, legend

Thanks Bill, saved me getting an Electrician

Thanks Bill. Always dreaded the day the motor on one of these guys decides to kick the bucket. Good to know it's not that hard to replace with one from Bunnings.

It's not as powerful as I thought it would be, but it works very well. ru-vid.comUgkxGjG43--gYqIoT4Xkur2PqCrtbKwTv2h6 There are three options to circulate air, and best of all a remote control for us lazy people. Installation was a breeze (no pun intended). It actually took longer to open the box then it did putting the side extenders on and sitting it in the window opening. It's a perfect alternative when you want airflow, but not the AC. Just might order another one for a different room. UPDATE: Bought another one like I said. They work great. Why not have two...

Thank you Bill. Just did mine today. Totally orthumb!!

Thanks I am 90 years old this year so we decided to install this fan

Mate I love your videos - everything you post is on my to do list!

Mate, thanks so much for this! I was trying to install a new Deta fan and couldn’t figure out why those clips wouldn’t attach to the drywall properly. The instructions in the box neglected to mention I needed to loosen the screws first and then push the clips up before tightening again. You’re a legend. Fan is now installed and working perfectly.

That's a Nice exhaust fan you got there

So good! Exactly what I needed as my fan was super noisy and needed a new one! Thank you

Just the video I needed am replacing a broken one with the same model. Thanks so much for making this!!

Well done easy to understand

Best video I found on how to do this myself - you explained everything step by step and the close ups of each stage gave me the knowledge and confidence to do this. And I did! I’m not a DIY person, but due to COVID-19 lockdown and my fan stopped working, I changed it myself so thank you, thank you, thank you! I’ll check out your other videos too, really enjoyed this one.

Thanks for this. I almost had a heart attack figuring it out lol! Fits in very well. I just went on RU-vid and found your video. So thank you my man.

So glad that I watched this vid. Was about to call the electrician.

Nice instructions! Simple and straight forward! Ta!

Omg you solved the puzzle for me!! Thank you legend!!

Did this yesterday with 100% success, thanks

Thanks a million Sir. I just installed the fan myself, electrician was charging me 55$ AUD ❤

Thanks Bill, you made life allot easier!

Noice! Thank Bill!

Appreciate your upload mate, I thought they were hard wired in so I have put up with a broken fan for ages.👍💯

Thanks so much. Fan is fixed thanks to you.

Hmm...maybe I’ll take a look at the one at mums house, it’s been broken since before I was born and I’m mid 30s. Top video.

Thanks Bill

Best guide around, ty mate.

Another home project you have made easy to understand. You are my go to DIY expert. Thanks for the easy to follow, tips & tricks.

Love your "how to" videos. They've been helping me around the house and saving money too. 👍

Legend bill, keep up the great work. Off to Bunnings now to get a new fan!!

Thanks mate saved me a few bucks

Love it thank you

Awesome. Thanks a lot. Job I need to do

Well explained, even I can do it.

Thanks! - I will give it a shot!

Great video mate, very well explained. Cheers l.

Mate your videos are straight up brilliant. Trying to learn how to do more things by myself, watching your videos give me allot more confidence. I'll be sure to share the channel with all my mates 👍

Great video, thank you. I have to do it myself or pay and I'm feeling really confident to replace the fan now. ☮️

Thank goodness! Mine stop working three days ago.

Great video!! Thanks :)

Bro thanks heaps you saved me like $50-$100 I think I'll have a crack it looks simple enough

I've been putting this off, because I didn't want to climb up into the roof. I will give this a go.

Brilliant

Too easy mate. Cheers :)

Thankyou so much bro fantastic video really really appreciate it

excellent mate showed me how to remove my arlec fan cover. cheers

Really enjoy your honest videos, but I was wondering, have you come across extractor fans for bathrooms windows and how to go about replacing them

Thankyou 👍

thanks a lot saved money

Cheers bud

Hi Bill, great videos. Any chance you can show how to fix a rattling air conditioner (i think it's the bearings)?

Hey mate can you do a video on cctv install/wiring around the house. Specifically a double story? Cheers!!

Thanks for sharing bill👍 . Bro can you show us how to fix a hole on the hollow door please.

Hi Bill my fan is duct taped to a flex pipe and it’s connected straight to the wire no plug. Is there a way I can somewhere disconnect the wire so it’s not live. Obviously will turn off the power first

On a roll with the content Bill, keep it up mate! Would you be able to show us how to drill a hole straight? I've been trying to drill a 9cm hole in wood for the dowels to go in for a floating shelf, but I can't get a straight hole and the dowel goes in on an angle :/ Any advice here or any tools I can go grab to help me out here? Cheers!

Hey Bill! Appreciate these videos as always. Do you think its a good idea to vent the exhaust air out of the roof space? I'm concerned that moist air could damage timber and cause mould growth in the roof.

This is a great video. Sadly I bought a Delta 250 mm and the screws hardly budge to tighten when clamped to the ceiling. Putting on the cover is hard because of the poor clip design. I think I will take it back.

What was the brand of that fan. It’s hard to find a that size. All of the newer ones are square?

What if you have a combined light and exhaust fan, is it stil just a plug in ?

You look like a more realistic version of Giga Chad.

how long does it take to get the fan done

Do we need to turn any circuit breakers off? Does the power socket in the ceiling have an on/off switch? Cheers matey.

the clamps are great idea.... but lets say if the fan fails how do you undo the clamps, if your hands are small enough, you can put your hands through the fan to the other side and push the clamps but if your hands big thats it.. i donno how u would remove it

Hey mate, I bought this Arlec 250mm exhaust, and cannot for the life of me see how its suppose to work. If the fan clamps onto the plasterboard snugly, then how is the clip on grill suppose to get the clips over the fan bezel? My clip on grill doesn't clip on, because there's no room between the fan bezel and the plaster. If I leave room by not tightening the screws, then the fan is loose, and then gets pushed up when I try to clip the grill on. This appears to be the worst engineered product, am I missing something?

how long cloud it take

Hey mate, I've removed my fan and the whole is 300mm, the fan itself is 320mm all I can find is 250mm? Can you get bigger?

Do all of emmhave an plug 🔌 and play feature??

The old exhaust fan was HPM and the new one is Arlec.

But of course I want mine to have a isolation switch so I'm going to save $300 and still diy 😂

you cloud wear saftey glass for that

*With these do you need to install ducts to it like the piping?*

Bill, where have you been all my life?

I am only 20 year old and we decided to install a new exhaust fan

Hmm. Your land’s exhaust fans are not like ours in the U.S.. For one, we pipe the exhaust air to contain any humidity and odors. Secondly, the fan motors and blades are puny, like those that cool personal computers.

What’s the most quite wxhaust fan brand ? Bought a cheap one from Bunnings Jesus mate it’s loud as shit . Once u switch on and off there is a loud noise and bearing sounds fkd

be careful cloud there be spider webs in there you can clean it out

Just had a look at mine thinking it will be an easy plug and play but as my luck shows its hard wired my house is only 6yrs old wtf!

WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE OLD BATHROOM FAN
