The fan, duct and outside outlet work as one system. A unit replacement is different from creating a new extraction route, so establish what is causing the problem before choosing a fan.
Share the existing duct route, if known, and explain whether it passes through a wall, ceiling void or roof. Bends, the outlet position and access all affect the options. A fan's performance depends on the complete extraction route, as well as the product itself.
Describe how the current fan operates, whether you need it to run after use and how important noise levels are to you. Timer, continuous and humidity-responsive models have different controls and electrical requirements. Share product details so these can be considered together.
Show the fan's position in relation to the shower and explain whether the existing duct, opening and supply will remain. The replacement needs to suit the location and applicable ventilation requirements. Agree any duct alterations or building work alongside the electrical installation.

Practical answers
Airflow depends on the complete route, replacement air and installation as well as the fan. Extraction can help manage moisture, but a new fan alone cannot promise to resolve damp or mould.
Ask Max about thisA wall fan may suit a direct route through an outside wall. An inline system can serve a ducted route where suitable space and maintenance access are available. The actual route, not the preferred appearance alone, determines the choice.
Ask Max about thisThe selected product and existing wiring determine any changes. Tell Max the operation you want and provide the model before assuming a direct replacement.
Ask Max about thisA running motor does not confirm useful airflow. Restricted ducting, the outside outlet or inadequate replacement air can limit extraction. The fan and complete route need checking before deciding whether the remedy is a replacement unit, controls or ventilation alterations.
Ask Max about thisPossibly, but compare the proposed fan with the existing route and mounting, not just the noise figure on the box. Restricted ducting or vibration can affect the result. Send the current model if visible and say where the noise is most noticeable before choosing a replacement.
Ask Max about thisA compatible unit replacement is a different scope from adding wiring, changing the duct route or creating an external opening. Access above the ceiling, the selected controls and any making good also matter. Ask for a quotation that separates the electrical work, ventilation alterations and building repairs.
