The vent outlet that goes on the roof can be found at any lumber store cheap! Get it the same time you pick up the fan. When I did mine I was doing roof/ceiling repairs so everything was open. I added a piece of 2x6 to my roof truss for mounting the fan. Get the highest CFM fan you can find.

I have done 2 of them on my home, one being a sliding patio door replacing ...
