DSC00499 - This is the old ceiling box. The conduit went above the door to a fixture mounted in the landing outside the bathroom. The conduit from the switch box also went back to that octagon box outside the door.

DSC00501 - This is the top of the wet vent. I later found out that this vent was leaking from a cracked seal on the roof. That leak is what caused the mold that pushed the job up a month.

DSC00512 - This is the electrical box on the other side of the box inside the bathroom. This box houses a 3-way switch for a hall light and the control switch for the whole-house fan. I pulled the old lath-mounted box and replaced it with this 3-gang box so I could add a timer to the whole-house fan.

DSC00515 - I ended up using greenfield from the new fan/light/heater directly to the new box inside the bathroom instead of trying to snake four new wires through the box outside the bathroom in the hallway.

DSC00516
DSC00516 - This is the new 1900 box connected to the new greenfield piece that connects to the heater/fan/light. It is directly connected via a box connector to the 3 gang box on the other side. The new circuit we ran from the basement comes through the 3 gang box to this box.
