In simple, our answer is a resounding YES!<\/p>\n
If you don\u2019t make steam in the first place, then you don\u2019t need to extract it. Revelation!<\/p>\n
We\u2019re forever hearing \u2018Keep it simple. However this is almost too simple. \u00a0We have found that in getting people to genuinely understand and buy into the concept of a Showerdome\u00ae shower top \u2013 we need to take them back a step further, and explain exactly how the concept works.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve been told for decades that you need to extract the moisture from your bathroom. We almost believe this is a given, and we are all too often set in this mindset.<\/p>\n
However, I challenge you to go back a step, and don\u2019t create any steam in the first place (gasp!). If you don\u2019t spill milk on the floor, you don\u2019t need to clean it up.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t generate steam while you shower, you don\u2019t need to extract it.<\/p>\n
I know crazy, right!<\/p>\n
LET’S GET TECHNICAL<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Moisture laden air (we speak of this as \u2018steam\u2019) is only formed as a direct result of warm moist air from the shower head, mixing with the cooler air in the bathroom.\u00a0 It\u2019s only when these two air masses meet, that steam is formed.\u00a0 Warm water on its own doesn\u2019t create steam.<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t believe me \u2013 I challenge you to watch your kettle when it\u2019s next boiling and observe carefully. There is no steam INSIDE the kettle.\u00a0 It\u2019s only visible when it comes out the spout and mixes with the cooler air in the kitchen.\u00a0 This is in fact the entire scientific basis of how Showerdome\u00ae was invented!\u00a0 But that\u2019s a story for another day.\u00a0 https:\/\/showerdome.co.nz\/about-showerdome\/<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n WHY IS SHOWERDOME A SMARTER CHOICE?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n A Showerdome\u00ae shower top is a relatively inexpensive one time purchase. It has no moving parts, costs nothing to run and does not wear out.<\/p>\n An extractor fan on the other hand, actually creates additional moisture, and has on-going associated costs and maintenance required.<\/p>\n A bold statement, but one we can justify. In order to not turn your bathroom into a vacuum, the extractor fan must draw more cool air into the bathroom to replace the air it is extracting.\u00a0 This cool air then mixes with the warm moist air again (are you seeing the cycle), and it then is simply keeping up with steam production \u2013 not solving it.<\/p>\n And on that note \u2013 why would you extract all the warm air from within the home that you\u2019ve spent time and money to create, only to replace it with cooler air as a result.<\/p>\n SO WHAT WE’RE REALLY SAYING IS…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n It makes total sense that a Showerdome\u00ae is a superior option to an extractor fan. It\u2019s the preventative measure, the silver bullet of bathroom condensation, not the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff.\u00a0 We\u2019re not \u2018too little too late\u2019.\u00a0 We\u2019re early.\u00a0 We\u2019re there \u2013 ahead of the game, and solving problems before they even eventuate.\u00a0 We are *that<\/strong>* good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In simple, our answer is a resounding YES!
