Abstract
Apparatus, systems and methods of 70 (seventy) CFM (cubic feet per minute) ventilation fans for bathrooms with recessed cans for lights with the motor inside and beneath the blower. A housing for the bath fan can be attached to joists in the ceiling by a telescoping brackets. The motor and blower can be removed as a single unit to allow the motor to be easily replaced or repaired, and to allow for the inside to be inspected during and after installation. A decorative ring shaped pan about the light can have vents that receive the incoming air into the fan, which is exhausted by the blower. Sealing members can seal the can to the light, and to the decorative ring shaped pan.
