Bathroom exhaust fan

I changed ours out. Got one that is completely quite and came with remote control.

I am surprised your fan doesn't have a separate switch, our 2012 Jayco HT has two switched right inside the bathroom door, one takes care of the lights and one takes care of the fan, although the fan also has a switch on it up near the ceiling. But, should be fairly easy to do, if you are fairly handy, to put in a fan switch next to the light switch. Not for me, but for a handy person.

My wife is just 5', but even though I installed the Vortex fan, the wife says there is no issue as her "poop" don't stink.:R

Maybe this thread offers some ideas:

See some of the suggestions in this thread.

My short wife uses a sawed off broom handle to reach the switch. Eighteen inches works for her. Cut yours off to the length that works for your wife.

I had the same issue
Replaced the factory fan switch with a pull switch and chain long enough for DW to easily reach

Working great and an easy fix

Good luck!!

Here is an old thread that may give you some ideas, near the bottom of the first page,the VORTEX fan is a great replacement and easy to install.

I couldn't fish the wire, so I just made a stick from a piece of plastic water pipe and a cap, so that DW(short) can push the on/off button. Other end is notched to raise and lower the vent cover. The stick also works when you are sitting on the john, and realize the need to open the vent and turn on the fan. Hangs on a hook next to the john. Then you could just install the power vent with a remote.
