Is this good to put in bathroom when taking showers to help with humidity levels in winter and not steam up windows in house?

It takes several days to collect a cup of water, even in a damp room, so I would use a more powerful dehumidifier--maybe even a less energy-efficient, noisier compressor-style dehumidifier. If I use my compressor-style dehumidifier in the same room, it will remove a gallon of water in 24 hours!

Way to small. Barely Big enough for a 3x3 closet. Don't waste your money like I did.

Yes. I use one in the bathroom but I also use a fan during the shower. It takes time to work but it does remove a lot of moisture from the air.

Yes, I think this would work even in a large bathroom. It takes a little time to totally dry the room but it will do the job.

Purchased this item to use with elderly mother & tub with glass doors. Working great. For you, if it will fit into the shower stall and not stick out so that you can't close the door or drape - you should be ok. But if your stall is narrow, or just room for one, you may have issues with water escaping into the bathroom.

For safety reasons I, don't think you can have this dehumidifier in your bathroom especially while showering. Even though my master bathroom has it's own fan I've placed it in my master bedroom and always make sure to turn it on while I am showering and keep it on at least couple of hours after I am done showering. Just to make sure there is no moisture left in the room or in the walk-in closet. Hope that helped.

It is good for a very small room like bathroom or closet with no window. If you open the window it defeats the purpose.

It will be helpful anywhere it gets cold in the winter. We use ours nearly every night (KC, MO) in our daughters room in the winter to keep the air from being too dry. Some only use it if their child has congestion and has a stuffy nose. Basically if you find that dry air during cold months bothers anyone in your household, then yes this will help when used in a bedroom or a small area.

the fan is not super strong, but you can feel it blowing if you stand in front of the unit. You will be able to direct it but it should make your entire bathroom quite warm if the door is closed. I have an energy efficient home and when the finance failed during the polar freeze last year, three of these units kept my 1500 square foot home at 70 degrees without issues. good luck.

If the water level goes down it is putting water in the air. In very cold weather (very low humidity) I doubt that you will see condensation on the windows.Also, when the humidity in the house gets really low it will take days to get it back to normal.

I use it in the bathroom more than any other room. Just be careful to place it so that it is out of the way. Away from any chance of getting wet or being in your path of entry or exit.

Yes. They are suitable for damp locations. I have one above my shower (though the ceiling is 9' tall).

This fixture can be placed in a bathroom without much concern of humidity getting into the electrical. And the housing unit that you'd use to mount it, can be much smaller if need be.

This fan would work fine in your bathroom. The fan is quiet and the light is functional. Just make sure you duct system exits the house either the roof or siding. So many people exhaust them into the attic. That will cause major roof damage and mold.

It might help with the condensation. It pulls much more moisture from the air than the passive units with charcoal, etc., but you would probably need to keep the door to the bathroom closed to have it really make a difference. Mine draws only about a quarter of a cup/day from a mid-sized bedroom with the door open, so it should do much better in a smaller room with the door closed. It is still a big help in keeping the summer-time humidity down in the bedroom.

as long as you have a protected spot to warm the shower that gets good sun. i use mine in the winter by letting it warm in a protected sun room that is enclosed in acrylic, out of the weather and wind.

That would depend on whether you like warm moist air in the room where your dryer is located. I live in the southeast and we have enough humidity this time of year and beyond that I don't want any more steamy air in my room. I open the window just enough for the venting hose to rest between the sill and the bottom of the open window. I put an old large beach towel next to the venting hose to keep hot air from getting inside. I would also expect that, over time, you might get some mildew if you don't vent at all. I do not like the tub vent kit since it's difficult for my arthritic hands to put the top and bottom together. There's definite room for improvement here, Panda!

We use it to vent two bathrooms at once with a "Y" branch fitting to take humidity out. Works great,so for a basement, probably would work well also. We let it run all the time coupled with a speed control ,low when no showers are going on, and high with a shower.

I would say yes - it does warm up a small bathroom (but not a large Florida room)...and I would never leave it unattended. That being said...does amazing job of dehumidifying these rooms for such a small unit!

Mines in my shower. But it's the guest bath, not an everyday use thing, but I would think so- it that perminent- sticker like adhesive, not the stick & move kind! Good solid size too- online stuff tends to be very small!
