| moisture in the bathroom? I have a very small bathroom. When we use the shower the moisture builds up in there, you can feel it on the wall and everything. If I had one of the fans that go in the ceiling of the bathroom that draw air out of the bathroom would this help with all the moisture? |
| We just had our bathrooms completely re-done. We had a moisture problem in one of our bathrooms as well. Besides having moisture resistant dry wall put in we also painted with a paint specifically for bathrooms. It is supposed to help with mildew and moisture. Then we had vents put in as well. This especially helps when we take showers. So far so good. After the shower you can see some moisture on the walls from the heat of the shower but there has been no problem with mildew or moisture build-up. You can pick up a vent at like Lowes or Home Depot and they range in price. There are some that are reasonably priced. Good Luck. |
| Yes, a fan would help tremendously. So would leaving the door open. I know we're pretty conditioned to want bathroom privacy, but if the only way you can get air in your bathroom is to open the door, open the door. |
| Yes by adding a fan to your bathroom will solve this problem, check that the bathroom fan you buy is sufficient as they do come with different capacities. |
| we have a 40 square foot bathroom and have installed 3 different fans, progressively getting larger ones. the current one we have is supposed to ventilate a 160 square foot area, and we still have moisture problems. it is ventilated to an soffitt under the eave like it is supposed to be. what is the problem?! |

Definitely.Yes.Many people don't realize that bathroom exhaust fans are an important part of your home's ventilation system. They are often used to eliminate foul odors and to clear condensation off mirrors, but their most important function is to remove moisture. |
