I am installing a new bathroom fan in a location that allows for a 6 inch duct to head out of the side of the house. The unit has an exhaust this pointed 90 degrees in the wrong direction. I could turn the unit 180 degree but I would still be putting a 90 degree bend in the duct. I was thinking about noise from the ducting so I did not want to put too many bends in. It occurred to me that a length of insulated 6" flexible duct might be a good option. Seems like it would get the job done and might dampen some sound. A couple of notes, the fan is well over sized for the room and also has a light and heater. It should get the job done regardless of the ducting me ideal or adjusted. The unit is superposed to be very quiet in the first place and this location is not critically quiet but I would like to take full advantage of the it capabilities. I am considering installing a second unit in another bathroom that really needs a bigger and quieter unit.

[color=#222222] [/color]I have a crack in my 22 year old one piece tub/shower. It is branded “Aqua Glass”. It is used daily. I first noticed the crack maybe a year ago. Not sure how long it has been there. Tub definitely flex’s when I move around taking a shower. I am interested in opinions regarding whether I can just ignore this until it grows, opens into a much larger crack or starts leaking. It is on the first floor over an accessible crawl space. Should I open the floor from underneath and look for a leak? Not wanting to replace unless it is leaking.

Otherwise, open the floor beneath or just sit tight until it worsens? Thanks
