Not enough to maintain human healthmonitor the quality of food and liquid consumed by them. Great attention should also be paid to the air in our rooms. Unfortunately, few people think about the fact that it is no less important than good food and water.
That ecological situation, which developsin gassed large cities, does not allow their inhabitants to banally ventilate the premises. The most acceptable solution to this problem is the installation of ventilation. The influx of clean air will reduce the likelihood of headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, and also serve as prevention of allergies.
During the construction of residential buildings ventilation in the bathroomthe room and the toilet are installed, as a rule, natural. However, it is clearly not enough to constantly ensure a normal level of freshness and cleanliness of the air in these rooms. So, when taking a shower, the bathroom is immediately filled with steam. Due to the lack of normal air exchange in it, moisture settles on the ceiling and walls. In the future, this factor will affect the occurrence of black spots and mold fungus. And it is very unhealthy.
Mold spores in the bathroom airrooms, are able to settle in the human lung and cause the development of diseases such as allergies, asthma, etc. In addition, black spots gradually destroy finishing materials, reaching the concrete itself. That is why everyone should have a properly functioning ventilation system in their house.
It also happens that natural ventilation inThe bathroom and toilet works quite normally. That is why before installing a new system, you need to check the health of an existing one. Make it a snap. In addition, no additional tools will be needed for this. It is enough to bring a piece of paper directly to the ventilation grill. Sheet should stick to it under the action of moving air. If this does not happen, then we can say that the hood does not work. Sometimes the cause of this condition may be too tight door to the bathroom or toilet. In this case, there is no flow of air into the bathroom in the right amount. This also requires verification. If the hood works with the door closed, but not with the door open, you can simply make a gap between the floor and the door leaf.
Air exchange in private cottages andapartment buildings produced by different schemes. In small residential buildings, separate ventilation ducts are brought to the roof from the kitchen, toilet and bathroom. Another scheme is designed in homes. Here, the air is collected in one common channel, displayed on the roof. If the house provides for forced ventilation, the builders install special systems equipped with sensitive elements. Such equipment closes or opens the flap when it becomes necessary.
The work of air exchange systems installed in the house may fail if there are:
- errors in the design or installation;
- accumulation of debris in the ventilation ducts;
- damage to the system during repair, etc.
Before installing a forced air exchange system, the necessary device must be purchased. It is an electric fan. When choosing this device, pay attention to:
It is necessary to determine the place where hewill be installed. It should be located away from any electric heaters. The bathroom ventilation system is equipped with high-quality insulation of used electrical wires. This caution is caused by increased humidity in the room.
These devices can be of the following types:
Forced ventilation in the bathroom and toilet is arranged with the help of various models of appliances. And each of them has its own design features. So, fans are:
1. Axial (propeller). This is the most simple model.
2. Radial. This type of instrument is capable of providing high pressure in the room.
3. Diagonal. This model combines the functions of the two previous ones.
4. Diametrically. These fans are able to work with a large volume of air due to the passage of air flow around the perimeter of their wheel.
Forced ventilation in the bathroom canbe made by hand. And the work is not particularly difficult. First of all, the air duct should be checked and, if necessary, cleaned of debris. Anyone who can not install a new fan, we recommend another option. You can simply withdraw a few meters from the old channel by purchasing the appropriate materials in the hardware store.
When building an electric fan, you should decide on the place where it is best to install it. Ideally, this should be the wall opposite the door.
Монтаж вентилятора осуществляется непосредственно in the hole of the exhaust channel. If your device has a larger diameter, then the hole will have to expand somewhat. After that, all electrical wires must be carefully connected. At the same time they should be placed in a dry place (so that they are not visible). In the next stage of work, the device is connected to the switch and fastened together with the grill to screws or liquid nails.
As a rule, there is a channel through whichcarried out ventilation in the toilet. The scheme of the organization of air exchange between this room and the bathroom can be carried out in two ways. The first of these involves the construction of a separate ventilation pipe. It should be located in the ceiling space and go from the bathroom to the air exhaust duct. The second option involves the installation of two separate fans.
One of them should be located on the duct, and the second - in the wall between the toilet and bathroom.
Most often, the ventilation in the bathroom "stalinky"arranged in the first embodiment. The adoption of such a decision contributes to the ceiling height in such apartments, which is equal to 3-3.5 m. Forced ventilation in the bathroom is carried out with the laying of an additional duct. This construction is mounted under the ceiling and is covered with gypsum plasterboard. In this case, the ventilation in the bathroom is carried out using a flexible, rigid or semi-rigid duct.
High-quality air exchange is important not only inthe bathroom. Normal air circulation is also needed in the toilet. It will allow not to feel discomfort from the work of the sewer system and prevent the appearance of fungus, reducing the humidity in the room. Often requires artificial ventilation in the toilet of a private house. This need arises if there is no natural air circulation due to the lack of sufficient wind speed in the area where the dwelling is located, high ambient temperature and some other factors.
How to make ventilation in the toilet (forcedtype)? For this you need to study the scheme of the device already existing duct. Sometimes he may have access directly to the toilet. But often the ventilation in the bathroom and toilet is carried out from a single box in the bathroom. In this case, between these two rooms should be a hole closed by a grate.
In the first case it is possible to install the fan directly on the duct. In the second version of the exhaust circuit will require the arrangement of an additional duct.
