Thanks just the same for your reply.With a condensing drier! You have to be joking! As was the post about the IP rating ( I pee)Thanks for your reply.
There is a very powerful 6 inch outlet diameter extractor fan in the bathroom so I dont expect any condensation problems.
It would seem you are misunderstanding what is being said here. The condenser dryer does not exhaust the moisture laden air into the atmosphere full stop. The condensate is caught inside the dryer and collects in a container. Do you understand? So how can the dryer cause any condensation in the bathroom? Let me know if you need to understand how this works.
As for the IP rating, did you understand that I have no idea about what IP rating the machine has? I do not need to know since it is located outside zone 2 of the room, full stop.
As for the extractor fan, there is a six inch outlet diameter powerful extractor fan that carries away all moisture created in the bathroom. That is a fact! There really is one! Do you doubt that in any way?
Why are you surprised at the presence of a bathroom fan if there is a condenser dryer? The two are separate entities! Do you understand that?
Do you need any more info? You should not need any unless you are prone to misunderstandings. Let me know and I will try to get you to fully understand what this discussion is all about OK?
Clearly I dont have all the time in the world for you but if at all humanly possible, I would like to help any fellow human being to fully understand this discussion.
There are lots of links I could send you that will explain in simple terms that anyone can understand how a condenser dryer works as well as the zone definitions for IP purposes, fans and their air moving performances etc etc. I am sure that once you do fully understand these, work you will definitely be able to make sensible suggestions here.
Let me know.
Humidity from drying output will not be a problem but i really feel that the IP rating is very relevant be it intended as a joke or not by previous posters.
The dryer will need an 'airflow' so that's clean dry air in and clean dry air out, ok so lets say as we presume no problems with that. However to allow an airflow 'around' and 'in & out' of the appliance requires some form of access point which could allow water ingression. the relevant IP protection required would be IP45 that's 4 (Protected against solid objects over 1mm, e.g. wires, nails etc.) and 5 ( Protected against low pressure jets of water from all directions, limited ingress permitted) if the floor was solid then i would raise it to IP47 (protection against the effects of temporary immersion between 15cm and 1m) . Now can your shower jet hit the machine where it would be? If not then you either don't have a shower, have a very big bathroom, or are seriously in need of a new shower. Nothing may be quoted in the regs about this situation but then, how many people put their dryer in the bathroom?
