ECN Forum Forums Code Related Discussion Building Codes for Electricians Bath Fan

What is the current requirements on bath fan and Code Reference number?

I am under the assumption that Bath Fans are required even if you have a window, is this not correct?

Similar, what are the requirements for kitchen exhaust fans and Code Reference number?

I am wanting to add General electrical notes to drawings.

Thanks in advance

The Florida Building Code (based on the IRC) 1203.4.2 says every toilet room shall have a 3 sq/foot window OR mechanical ventilation.

IRC R303.3 and its exception require 1.5 sqaure feet of opening or an exhaust fan.

Ryan,

Thank you for the info. I really appreciate it.

Doug
