My bathroom gets very quickly steamed up especially when the shower is being used.
What would you suggest in way of ventilation or extraction?
I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

Hope this helps, Ray
Hi goya, any electrician that does work in a bathroom or kitchen has to be registered for part p,it is a law that came into force in jan 05, the best thing is to ask friends or family if they know of a good local electrician, I am registered with a company called" Napit" if you don't know a local sparks go onto the Napit site or ECA, or the Niciec site and search for local tradesman I am sure anybody with one of them will give you the correct advice for your needs, Good luck,hope you find a nice friendly sparkie, Ray
Should have mentioned Goya, if you go for the Humidity controlled option,be aware that the fan will be monitored 24 hrs per day by the humidistat so it will be on & off permanently ,which if your bedroom is right by it can be a bit annoying till you get used to it. but they only cost a few pence per week to run.
