    hi All


    I have recently purchased a semi detached house and will be doing renovations.


    the bathroom has no window (not possible) and i am wandering what is the best type of exhaust fan or ventilation to use, its situated between living room and kitchen and will have toilet, basin and large shower


    Any info appreciated.


    Thanks

    For it to meet the building regs it needs a window.

    If you can't put in a window then I assume that you don't have any outside wall in the bathroom. How long would the ducting be from bathroom to outside?

    You'll get away with the toilet and basin but you will have constant condensation everywhere in the bathroom from the shower. More in the winter than summer

    Hi sleeper


    Thanks for reply

    As it's a semi one wall is the neighbours wall

    It's a odd layout as it's the main/only bathroom (was the one thing putting me off the premises) it's between the living room and kitchen I suppose to get to an outside wall for a vent it would be 8ft


    Would installing two exhaust fans make sense ?


    Thanks

    There is attic above it I could also go up and out the tiled roof?
