Bathroom Ventilation




Bathroom ventilation is very essential for good health and contents of the house. It is applied to get rid of heat, humidity and dust from home. For proper ventilation, windows and doors must be placed opposite each other.

Methods of Bathroom Ventilation
We can get bathroom ventilation by two ways either by windows or by mechanical ventilation system. In winters when windows are kept shut, we need mechanical ventilators such as: exhaust fans (ventilation fans) for ventilation. Exhaust fan removes moist air and foul smell from bathroom. These fans are set up by a timer and are activated when shower is turned on. They are deactivated when shower is turned off. The fan has one more function as a humidity sensor which maintains moisture level. The following are approaches of bathroom ventilation systems.

1.Window Ventilation System

The window should be proper having a size of 3’x2’. It’s properly installed giving full ventilation to the space. Thus installed window gives fresh air to the bathroom.

2. Mechanical Ventilation System (Bathroom Exhaust Fans)

These exhaust fans are mounted on walls. The fans are installed on exterior walls of bathroom and musty air removes from outside.

These bathroom exhaust fans are also available as combination units such as a heater, light and ventilating fan all in a single device.

Try balanced ventilation, especially energy recovery ventilation with good filtration (MERV 10 or better). With this method you are exhausting irritants, pollutants and odors being generated in your home, and replacing this ‘bad air’ with better outdoor air (oxygen), and filtering out triggers like pollen and mold spores. In a matter of hours you will be replacing all of the air in your house, and saving energy in the process.
