In the absence of effective ventilation, dampness and unpleasant odors will settle in the bathroom, mirrors will be misted, surfaces will be covered with mold. How to properly organize air exchange in the bathroom of a high-rise building?
In the vast majority of multi-storey houses natural ventilation of apartments with air inflow through windows and exhaust through vertical shafts from which to each apartment ventilation channels are laid is provided.
In the repair, especially associated with the dismantling of the sanitary plumbing, the ventilation system of the bathroom is essentially created anew, and in the course of the work it is necessary to take into account the direction of airflows throughout the apartment, as well as the specifics of the operation of the general house hood.
AIR TRAFFIC
In typical houses, the ventilation riser adjoins the bathroom and during repair it is usually not necessary to assemble long horizontal ventilation ducts - it is sufficient to equip the exhaust hole in the wall with a decorative grating or to lay a short air duct under the ceiling of the bathroom, using an aluminum or plastic corrugated hose, hidden in plasterboard or metal galvanized steel) box.

Such a box is finished with the same material as the ceiling; beautifully designed it will help the built-in lamps, moldings or other decorative elements of the interior. If the height of the premises exceeds 250 cm, a suspended rack or tension ceiling is usually mounted in the bathroom, into which the ventricles are connected, connected to the shaft or the horizontal channel by means of hoses.
However, in this case, it is necessary to separately organize the ventilation of the space behind the ceiling, ensuring the flow of air through the ventrashet or gap gaps near the walls and taking care of the hood.
Now a few words on how to organize the flow of air into the bathroom. The easiest way - saw the door leaf (door) so that under it there is a gap of about 20 mm.
Another variant - insert a special grille in the door: these products are small, elegant and also better cut the sound thanks to the visors over the holes (there are also special noise-reducing devices with a buffer insert made of porous material). The third option - to arrange openings in the walls of the bathroom, equipping them with similar wall-mounted overflow valves.
Sometimes the bathroom is installed sealed doors with thresholds, considering that for normal ventilation it is often enough to open them. This is inconvenient, moreover, in most houses the hood in the bathroom serves other rooms as well - by blocking access to it, you will worsen the microclimate in the whole apartment.

FORCED EXHAUST
The main reasons for the problems with the hood are well known - these are clogged and broken during the repair of ventilation risers.
It's not such a rarity and ordinary construction marriage, when the fault is the bent deflector of the exhaust pipe. And finally, there is a completely objective reason for the unstable operation of natural ventilation - it fluctuations in the difference between the temperatures of indoor and outdoor air: in the heat, it usually "pulls" badly.
The main available means of dealing with this disadvantage is the installation of an electric fan. Exhaust devices are quite diverse. The simplest of them have one mode of operation and are controlled by a switch (it is often combined with a light switch in the bathroom and toilet). A higher level of comfort will be provided by automatic systems with a motion sensor or relative humidity.
