The Homeowner’s Goal

What the project needed to accomplish.

The homeowner called because the bathroom exhaust fan was not working. They wanted the problem diagnosed and a working replacement installed so the bathroom could be ventilated during everyday use.

Existing Conditions

What we found before starting.

The existing ceiling-mounted exhaust fan was old and no longer operating. With the grille removed, heavy dust buildup was visible on the fan assembly and inside the housing. Troubleshooting led to replacement of the old fan. The before photo documents its condition without assuming that the visible dust alone caused the failure.

Final Result

What changed for the homeowner.

The homeowner received a new bathroom exhaust fan in place of the old, nonworking unit, restoring ventilation for everyday bathroom use. The two project photos show the original fan with its grille removed and the replacement assembly installed before the grille went on. This West Reno service call combined electrical troubleshooting with bathroom exhaust fan replacement.
