Key tips for a warmer, drier home – 6/9 – Steam

Robert Anderson from

Open windows (ventilate) in the kitchen when you cook, and in the bathroom when you shower or take a bath, to let steam out.

When showering make sure to turn on the extractor fan and crack the window to let the steam out.
Use your kitchens extractor fan when cooking as it helps stop steamy areas from getting damp and mouldy.
