Condensate trap for bathroom extractor fan

[tringk]

Had a new bathroom a few months ago and had poor performance from shower extractor.
Took a look in loft and it is a bad install ductwork is badly done into vertical extraction and no codensate trap. Moved the ductwork can hear water in there. What do i need to do/buy to rectify?

Not the worst I’ve ever seen, but I’d re-do it properly.

Ideally use rigid ducting, with a constant upward gradient. Then any condensation would run back to the shower. If you fitted a condensate trap, where would you drain it to?

It should probably be insulated.

(Is that a boiler terminal in the roof that it’s connected to?It seems to have a taped-off second connection.)

Hose looks far too long , shorter the better .Insulated hose reduces condensation .

Vertical vents are NEVER a good idea, especially that long

Vertical vents are NEVER a good idea

Had one which was fine , but just 300mm to roof vent from fan so little by way of condensation .

Further down i have another fan which terminates under eaves is it possible to connect two fans to one exit run?

plan b will attempt to install new duct exiting through soffit. no way to reach soffit comfortably safely so will try reverse install will this work?
1- 102mm hole from loft side into soffit
2-attach ducting onto vent securely
3- from upstairs window feed otherside of ducting into soffit hole
4-back into loft and pull through attach to fan.
only problem is the screws for vent plate.
In theory seems possible please correct me if im wrong.

There is alot of water in the current setup and am concerned about this potentially being a hazard

We insisted that our fitter drilled a hole through the brick wall and fitted the conduit through that.
