Your bathroom exhaust fan's main purpose is still pulling moisture out of the air to help prevent mold, mildew, and condensation damage.
But as a bonus, it also helps clear out bathroom odors by pulling that air out of the room. So while it may not have been installed just for that reason, it definitely helps.
Simple rule — if the room gets humid, the exhaust fan should be doing its job. And if it also helps with the smell, even better.
Not sure if your home’s ventilation is doing what it should? That’s exactly what a home inspection is for.
