Hi all,
We have a downstairs bathroom which has a bath and shower and we have no kind of extractor fan fitted in the room. The only kind of vent is a celling mounted grill that is located above the bath and is connected to a flexi pipe to an outside grill on the wall as the bathroom has 3 outside walls.
The other vents are window vents and the windows which we have open alot and the heating source is a large double radiator.
The main problem we have is the amount of steam which fills and stays in the room while running a bath or shower and we have just noticed a small amount of mould next to the grill mounted on the celling and also the tiles get very wet if the bathroom is used. The images below show the location of the vent grill etc above the bath.
If anyone can give me an ideas on if i should fit a celling mounted extractor fan and if i could use the location where the grill is already. The flexi pipe go's up by about a foot then across to the outside wall.
I have no access to the celling Void above the bathroom as a hatch was never installed and i also dont want to spend to much on doing this.
Many Thanks
Chris
