The primary purpose for having an exhaust fan is to remove the odor, moisture and unpleasant out of the bathroom and improve indoor air quality. Voldam ventilation fans help to control and eliminate bathroom odors.

Without a bathroom ventilating fan, bathrooms are susceptible to excessive moisture buildup that increases the chances of damaging bathroom walls, floors, and ceilings, as well as bathroom fixtures. Warm, humid air, caused by running hot water for baths and showers, is a perfect environment for mold, mildew and microorganism growth. High moisture in rooms can also break down interior room materials such as wallboard, wall paint, and trim, not to mention the entry door.

Additionally, they add to the safety of the home and its residents by reducing fumes from cleaning agents that could potentially cause health-related issues. For good ventilation, an exhaust fan should run for a minimum of 15 minutes after every bathroom visit.
