  • Like most pros, Chris Folk knows the bathroom is a breeding ground for callbacks."One of the biggest problems we have is humidity," says Folk, owner of Evans Coghill Homes in Charlotte, N.C. If builders don't install bath fans that effectively remove humidity, mold or mildew could form, he says. However, if a fan is noisy, the homeowner is less likely to turn it on or leave it on for the proper amount of time. (The Home Ventilating Institute recommends that fans be left on for at least 20 minutes after showering.) Meanwhile, some "people won't turn them on because if they leave the room they'll forget it and it'll run all day," says Jim Barrett, senior vice president of marketing for Hunter Fans.

Available in two-and three-fan kits, the system uses formulas based on home size and number of bedrooms to calculate a home's necessary ventilation.
