Updating bathroom ventilation isn’t usually all that big of a deal. But in an older home, the outdated electrical system and lack of an existing vent system can make it tough. When a homeowner wanted to add ventilation to her older home, master electrician Heath Eastman was the pro for the job, and he took us along for the ride.
