is it vented to avoid mold build up

There is no venting. Has never been an issue for me. My toothbrush is usually never more than damp when I place within the device to be sanitized.

I've not had any problems with mold or mildew. I followed the instructions and mine have been packed away in my garage for 6 + months now with no problems.

This unit is mounted outside the building so does not require additional venting other than what is right in the unit. There are also some units that are mounted inside the building, and those do require a vent to the outside.

In most areas it is illegal, and unwise, to vent your bathroom into your attic, as it causes mold and rot. Bathrooms need to be vented all the way to the outside to prevent damage to your home. You are better off not having a fan than having one that vents to the attic.

No. We have used this product for the last eight months every day and had no problems with mold.

Either if you want. I wouldn't have it dissipate in the attic as the moisture and mold factor would go up. It's vented through the roof in my house.

This unit does need to be vented outside but it doesn't need any other drainage. The vent is just to bring fresh air into the unit.

No venting needed, if you room is very tight you might want to get a little fresh air.

Yes you should vent it outside. It works very well and you do not want to put the moisture from the bath into the attic. It may cause mold to develop if not removed

It does have a vent in the lid. And we've used ours about a dozen times and no problems so far.

I think it just might. I have mine in a closed up tent camper and live on the Gulf Coast with a lot of humidity It keeps the humidity down and no mold has formed in the past month I have had it.

It will dehumidifi. Just the air circulation should help your problem,after you clean the mold up with some bleach.

There is no ventillation. I do not consider the finish to be brushed nickel....more like stainless steel.

yes, make sure you vent from side and back. It is important so the motor does not burn out.

Read the instruction book - there is a clearly marked water level line on the plastic tank. We put ours up against the wall when we're not using it. I think as long as there is sunlight and you are actively using it the water should be fine. The chlorine tablet is essential to discourage mold/mildew. If you are storing it for a longer period of time unused I would empty it and allow all water to evaporate out for a dry interior - otherwise mold and mildew will form in a sealed and dark space that has any moisture.
