Bathroom with a shower tray and black-framed screen

Bathroom ventilation in Barcelona.

In Barcelona we sort out windowless bathrooms and those with a small window that never dry: fan, duct and air supply planned together.

When does a bathroom need better ventilation?

  • The mirror stays steamed up
  • Mould on the ceiling and grout
  • A musty smell that lingers
  • Internal bathroom with no window

What bathroom ventilation includes

  • Duct inspection

    We check the existing shared shaft or duct and whether it actually draws air.

  • Quiet extractor fan

    A low-noise unit with airflow matched to the size of the bathroom.

  • Timer or humidistat

    Runs on after the light goes off, or starts by itself when humidity rises.

  • Ducted outside

    Ducting to the façade, light well or roof when there is no usable shaft.

  • Electrical connection

    A protected supply kept out of the wet zones, in line with the REBT.

  • Air inlet

    A gap under the door or a grille so fresh air can actually come in.

Fan, duct and incoming air

In buildings in areas such as El Raval, El Barri Gòtic and La Barceloneta, a new outlet through the façade or light well affects common parts and goes through the owners' community. So we first check whether the existing duct will do and, if not, prepare a proposal for the community meeting.

For ducting in bathrooms in areas such as La Dreta de l'Eixample, L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample and Sant Antoni, we use smooth rigid pipe rather than corrugated flexible hose, on the shortest route through the false ceiling and with a slight fall outwards so condensation does not run back into the fan.

A site manager coordinates electrician and installer when the false ceiling or façade has to be opened, and we leave everything tidy and clean. We also cover nearby areas: L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Esplugues de Llobregat and Sant Cugat del Vallès.

Frequently asked questions

01

Bathroom ventilation in Barcelona: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Barcelona, in areas such as El Raval, El Barri Gòtic, La Barceloneta, Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera, La Dreta de l'Eixample, L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample and Sant Antoni, and also nearby: L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Esplugues de Llobregat and Sant Cugat del Vallès. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

Can the bathroom fan share the kitchen extract duct?

No. Each needs its own duct: sharing one lets cooking fumes and smells into the bathroom, and the CTE (DB HS 3) rules it out.

03

Timer or humidity sensor: which is more suitable?

A timer is simple and enough for most bathrooms. A humidistat suits internal or heavily used bathrooms, as it only kicks in when there is steam.

04

What if the building's shared shaft does not draw?

We check whether it is blocked or shared with other flats. Sometimes the right fan is enough; if not, we look at a dedicated outlet to the façade or light well.
