Bathroom exhaust fan-the right way!

Well, you know how when you have the kitchen, or hall exhaust fans on to cool the Monte, and flush......A sinus clearing event.
Also, how can I put this on in a 'Delicate' way? There are certain times an odor should go via one's toes, instead of one's nose....
SO, I installed an exhaust fan with an opening in the floor, exhausting to the front of the Monte, where it offends no one.
I bought a small bathroom exhaust fan and pipe, 3" 90 degree ells, and a plumbing drain cover.
Now our 'Phone booth' of a bathroom will be survivable with the door shut.
Here's photo's of the job:

I like that Ozz! Put the gas with the other gas!

Better put a label by the floor though - "not a sanitary drain - gas or otherwise offensive airborne particulates only".

Ozz, the fan idea is great, but did you just give vented propane a direct route inside your bathroom, Not flaming, just concerned. Bill

No problem, Bill. There is a check valve in line, one way air only.

Missing the adaptor to recycle that gas and use in conjunction with your propane. Seeing all the things you have already invented I tend to believe that you already figured that one out Jim...LOL I am sure some people could save 50% on their propane bill..... Not saying any names in peticular..... Tom "Honey where are the chips and salsa to go with my beer..... Need to fill the propane tank again...." Don't mean to rib you but this is to wide open for fun!!! Seriously looks very profesional and might want to patent your idea these type of things have a tendency to show up as the new thing for this years model.

Great job!

Nice Ozz, Your a tin-knocker! Wonder if it would be better to have panned that cavity to keep the height max in the basement?

Ozz,

Have you named it yet? Perhaps a f--t fan?

I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me.

Noneck, naaa, no tinner, just a wore out Pipefitter...
See, you and I should have been sitting around swapping tall tales, discussing the job, and this would have come up.
When I toss something in there and knock the whole thing down, I may do something like that.
rickfox, maybe gas relocation device..........
Take care, Ozz

Nice job, Jim. There are times, when the wind is just right, the Fantastic Fan will suck in fumes from the black tank vent on the roof...
