The remote isn't that bad. It's meant to be attached to the wall beside the toilet, but we'd have to make the space.
I don't need nor want a toilet remote. Control panel on the side of the seat is perfect.
That's a lot of options. The controller on my hotel toilet in Korea looked something like this. Not a lot of help if you don't understand the writing. At least some use pictures.The remote isn't that bad. It's meant to be attached to the wall beside the toilet, but we'd have to make the space.
Seat controls (if you're using them, make sure you hit the right one):
Front and Top of remote:

Crud. Now I want to get rid of that yellow wallpaper that the original owner put on. More work.
Not sure if you need bx in the cabinet. As long as the wire is secured if it was high at the back it is reasonably protected from physical damage. Romex is probably fine but I'm not sure if code calls this a wet or damp location (which means romex and bx both have code issues).
Damper closed? House at negative pressure? Do you use the chimney?
Where's the 와우 button?I don't need nor want a toilet remote. Control panel on the side of the seat is perfect.
My first experience was in South Korea away from tourist hell. Obviously, no english at all on the control. Press a button and hope for the best. Quickly figured out which buttons I didn't want to press again.

How do you know if your house is negative pressure? Symptons?
If you have a manometer (ideally two channel) you can measure it. Otherwise you can try things like turning an exterior door knob and if the door pops in you are negative pressure or crack a window and see if air is rushing in. Try a couple different facades as wind can affect the tests. You can also burn a bit of paper just under the chimney and see if smoke is pouring in or getting sucked out. Not too big a fire or it will create a draft in the chimney.
Damper closed and the house is a sieve. I’ve never heard of doing the expanding foam in a bag trick.
Thanks for the info. Why is this a bad thing?
It can cause issues with back drafting (gas water heater, medium efficiency furnace or fireplace) which pulls CO into the house. Also, it cam be expensive. If you furnace is blowing air out of your house and the weakest link is a crappy window install in your bedroom, that cold air drawn in has a long path that absorbs a lot of heat from your house. If that is the situation, you are better to install makeup air near the furnace so cold air comes in and then gets sent out right away.
I have been looking for the push/pull knobs (push to open if door opens away from you, pull with a finger to open toward you) but they seem to be hard to find.

Nothing like having two inefficient fireplaces with the flues a few inches apart. The smoke from the rec room gets sucked down the other flue into the living room flue.
That just means twice as much cold air is being drawn in somewhere else.
I've always been fascinated by the Sterling engine fans that sit on top of a stove, creating air circulation. Apparently not a lot of horsepower but still something I really need (Not).
Buddy has one of those at his cottage...that place gets warm as eff.
