Condensation and mould simply love bathrooms. Hot showers and baths readily cause the humidity in bathrooms to hit 100%. At 100%RH the walls, windows and mirrors will be coated in condensation, causing paint to peel as well as providing the perfect habitat for mould to grow. The humidity from the bathroom will also diffuse throughout […]

These benefits are particularly prominent for allergy and asthma sufferers, but maintaining a healthy humidity […]
