Why Does My Bathroom Always Feel Damp?
If your bathroom feels damp long after a shower, you’re not alone. Steamy mirrors, wet walls, and lingering moisture are common in Kiwi homes. The culprit? Steam.
Every hot shower produces steam when warm, moist air inside the shower meets cooler air outside. This condensation settles on ceilings, paint, and cabinetry – leaving your bathroom feeling damp and musty. Over time, it leads to:
- Mould and mildew
- Peeling paint or bubbling plaster
- Water damage to cabinetry and flooring
- Musty odours that are hard to shift
The Traditional Fix: Fans and Open Windows
Most homeowners rely on extractor fans or open windows to fight moisture. While they can help, they aren’t always effective. Fans consume electricity and depend on how long they’re left running. Windows let out heat – not ideal in winter. Worst of all, these methods only tackle steam after it has already formed.
