    Its a really helpful article, some of your best options ( as it describes) are:


    Motion sensor activation turns on the fan when someone enters the bathroom. The fan speed can be pre-set to a low volume to remove the moisture of everyday tasks, such as shaving, and switch-activated for high-volume tasks, such as showering.

    Overhead lighting can be switch-activated or turned on by a motion sensor.

    Night light equipped models use a low-wattage light to help you find your way in the dark.

    Humidity sensing ventilation fans automatically switch on when the unit detects high levels of humidity.

    Built-in heaters, typically infrared heat lamps, add a little extra warmth when it's chilly outside.

    Keep in mind the size of the room, and do you have proper ventilation/exhaust.

    A fan manufacturing company will be able to assist you with the proper size, weight, and style that will work best. Google fan companies in your area. Best of luck.

    I have a combo light/exhaust fan that doesn't look like a fan at all. You need to pick a fan that is the right size for your room. Check your big box stores for sizes and styles

    Do you need a fan to keep it cool? Or just for ventilation and exhaust? I would have a bathroom fan put in.

    Bath ventilation fan is the only option😓
