The importance of ventilation in the bathroom
Ventilation is useful absolutely in any room of the apartment, however there are rooms where proper ventilation is simply necessary. For example, unpleasant odors should be periodically removed from the toilet and an exhaust hood is also necessary in the kitchen. The fact is that in almost every house there are such zones, most often in residential spacious rooms, where absolutely all the smells come. These are the so-called exhaust zones and the people living in them have a hard time. How to deal with this state of affairs? Properly build ventilation in the bathroom and in the kitchen. Let's talk first about what is more important for a comfortable stay.
Standard bath and toilet ventilation system
Standard ventilation in most multi-apartment buildings, both in the bathroom and in the toilet, is passive, that is, it has ventilation ducts with little efficiency. The air flow in them slows down over time, as they become clogged with small debris and dust.
To determine the state of ventilation, you just need to light a match or a newspaper rolled into a tube and bring it with the end of the flame to the exhaust outlet.
If its flame fluctuates and leans toward the duct, then everything is in order - everything works, if the flame burns indifferently and calmly - measures must be taken. Perhaps your duct generally works with reverse draft, attracting the smells of neighbors into the apartment. Sometimes it happens.
The type of conventional ventilation in residential buildings is called supply air, that is, the principle of its operation is connected with the connection of channels in the mine, which communicates with the atmosphere. An alternative to this system is forced ventilation, directing air through the channels using small fans. The difference between these two systems is the principle of operation of each of them. Supply ventilation works on the principle of draft due to pressure differences, while forced ventilation drives the air in the right direction by the fan.
How to improve ventilation in the bathroom?
If you want to create forced ventilation in the house, you need to buy a fan and install it yourself or using the wizard in the ventilation hole. It will be nice to purchase a centrifugal fan, then a new one bathroom ventilation and the toilet will really please you. Too strong a fan should not be taken so that your smells are not removed to the neighbors.
Choose a fan of optimal performance and size specifically for your bathroom.
