[Greenbuilding] recommend bath exhaust fan

[Ted Inoue]

Panasonic has a great line of quiet fans. I installed a couple and they live
up to their claims. Very quiet and efficient.
Check out the fans on this page:

you might also consider a central bath fan, with ducts running to the
bathroom(s). That moves the fan away from the bath so mostly all you hear is
the air noise.

Humidistats can be found here:

I've installed a couple and they work great. Wired in parallel with a normal
switch so that the humidistat turns the fan on any time the humidity is high
or when the switch is manually flipped on.
