Burning Questions - Bathroom Ventilation Fans

Burning Questions

In this episode, I get to talk with Engineer Hayden Knapp and Lieutenant Heath Rogers about Bathroom Ventilation Fans. We'll try to help everyone better understand the risks associated with bathroom ventilation fans, why we have them in our homes, how these fans operate, as well as when you should consider replacing your bathroom ventilation fans. We'll also review some relevant data regarding appliance fires and some best practices. If you like this episode, consider liking and subscribing. We'll post new content as often as we can! Thank you for listening, and stay safe out there!!
