I'm designing the new bathroom extraction. In the en-suite I did last year I used two Manrose 30w ducted kits, one over the shower (30minutes run) and one over the loo (5 minutes run) both triggered by the appropriate lights (IP65 downlighters with 35w MR16 dichroics, 3-pole isolators etc.,etc..) This has been very successful, but the room is hardly bigger than a large wardrobe.
Now I'm doing the main bathroom, and the shower will be an over-bath job with folding screen. {I'm not interested in the discussion of bath vs. shower vs. separate cubical thanks - too late.} It's a bigger room, but still not very big, and does have two small accessible and open-able windows. I think we need one ducted fan, over the shower-end of the bath to clear the steam, but what extraction rate? Does it need a timer? Humidistats seem very expensive, but should I consider that? Screwfix?
Thanks for any tips. (I've read the wiki)
