  • I want to install a new exhaust fan to replace my old one. However, I want to upgrade to an exhaust fan with a light. How difficult will this be to install?

  • @mytransam1978 If you only have one wire going to the existing fan you'll need to attach the wires from the fan and light together on the existing wiring. This will make both the light and fan turn on when you turn on the wall switch.

    Thank you for watching the Lowe’s YouTube Channel. –Lowe’s

  • DO NOT USE DUCT TAPE, this guy is WRONG! use a good foil tape with a zipp tie for added insurance.

  • The one thing you do not use duct tape on is on ducts. Use a zip tie and tape that wont easily condensate and loose it's usefulness.

  • Mike Kraft is an actor, not a home improvement expert. He's the same guy who did the "retro-encabulator" video a long time ago. As soon as this video started playing, I recognized his voice instantly.

  • this seems a little more complicated than i would like...

  • Guys , I have a developer new build home , and what they have done with mine , was simply to drill a hole in the wall and stick the fan through there! , And it Leaks heat like fuck because if this.

  • @saniok75 you must be a hermaphrodite then!

  • That looks like a brand new one they pulled out

  • I think we all know what kind of duct tape he was talking about. You can tell by looking at it, it is the tape especially made for ventilation piping. Lets not be so mean!!

  • Gorilla Glue! Discover it and it'll fix all your problems :P

  • @cmancwr What kind of dumb-ass uses duct tape on a duct.
