I'd like to vent two, currently unvented, bathrooms using a single Panasonic FV-10NLF1 In-line Vent Fan. It's their smallest unit and is rated for 120 CFM. Each bathroom is about 5' x 9' (45 sf). I'd like the fan to turn on when the main light switch is turned on in either bathroom, i.e. one device controlled by two independent switches. What is the best and legal way to wire this configuration? Also, the fan would seem to be a little overpowered for just one bathroom (probably 50 CFM is all that is needed for each bathroom)... maybe even for two. Will this cause me any problems? Thanks for all your help!
In case you're wondering, the inline fan is about my only reasonable option for venting these bathrooms. There is no attic space to install a conventional vent fan, nor can I use a wall fan direct to the outside (for multiple reasons). I plan to install the inline fan in a bedroom closet adjacet to the bathrooms.
