Homeowners in Rancho Cordova who are struggling with excessive humidity, odors, and other indoor air quality problems should consider installing exhaust fans or replacing any existing exhaust fans that are broken or performing poorly.

Which Areas of My Home Should Have an Exhaust Fan?
Depending on the design and features of your home, exhaust fans may be needed in the following areas:
- Kitchens: When cooking, kitchens may fill with heat, smoke, natural gas fumes, and grease particles. In a kitchen, exhaust fan installation is often recommended to enhance indoor air quality, working along with a vent hood positioned above a stove.
- Bathrooms: The California Residential Code requires that spaces with bathtubs or showers have ventilation to control humidity. A bathroom exhaust fan installation is needed to remove heat and moisture, which promotes mold growth that releases airborne particles. Certain individuals are prone to mold-related breathing problems, adverse reactions, and other health risks, including those with allergies, weak immune systems, or other existing respiratory concerns. Mold growth in bathrooms may also damage drywall, wallpaper, and more.
- Garages: The air in garages may contain vehicle exhaust fumes, gasoline used in lawn and garden equipment, and chemicals contained in paints, fertilizer, or cleaning products.
- Attics: Exhaust fans are commonly installed in attics to remove heat and humidity. Having an attic fan can help to reduce utility bills by decreasing the stress on air conditioners.
- Basements or Crawl spaces: Along with dehumidifiers, exhaust fans are a possible solution for minimizing the damp, moist, and humid conditions that commonly exist in basements and crawl spaces beneath the home.
Exhaust fans should be installed in compliance with local codes for electrical wiring and ventilation.
