Mould is a ventilation problem

The Bathroom Fan That Does Nothing

Mould on the bathroom ceiling is almost never a cleaning problem. It is a ventilation problem, and it keeps coming back because the moisture has nowhere to go.

The two usual causes are a fan that is undersized for the room, or one that discharges straight into the roof cavity instead of outside. The second is worse, because it just moves the damp somewhere you cannot see it until the ceiling stains.

The third is human. A fan switched with the light runs for the two minutes you are in there and stops long before the room has cleared.

A Fan That Actually Clears the Room

We size the fan to the room rather than fitting whatever is on the shelf, and duct it to discharge outside the building.

A run-on timer is the other half of it. The fan keeps running for a set period after you leave, which is when most of the moisture actually gets removed.

Where you are replacing an existing unit we will check where the old one was venting, because a surprising number are simply blowing into the roof space.

Combination units with heating and light are common in bathrooms, and we can install those on suitable switching too.

Keeping the Moisture Out of Your Ceiling

A good exhaust fan takes the steam outside instead of into your roof space, which protects the whole room over time. We have been fitting them for over 15 years, and we check where the old one was actually venting while we are up there.

Asked Questions

Exhaust Fan Questions

  • Usually the fan is undersized, or it vents into the roof space rather than outside. Both are fixable, and both are worth sorting before the moisture gets into the plaster.

  • It keeps the fan running for a set time after the light goes off, which is when the room actually clears. It is a small addition that makes a real difference.

  • It needs to discharge outside the building, through the roof or an eave. Simply ending the duct in the roof cavity moves the damp rather than removing it.

  • Yes, three-in-one units are common in bathrooms. The switching and circuit need to suit, which we check when quoting.

  • If you dry clothes inside or run a vented dryer, yes. It is the same moisture problem as a bathroom, just slower.
