Will this work in my apartment bathroom? I don't have a vent, and I like to take long hot showers. Or do I need something bigger?

I think it would work well. We used it in the basement after the flood, and even in the larger rooms it gathered the moisture. It is small, but unless you have a large bathroom you wouldn't want anything larger.

For the price, I would not use it. The adapter from the wall outlet to the dehumidifier got incredibly hot. I was afraid of a fire.

I think it will work in your bathroom. Mine is in my little camper and doing a great job.

This size is perfect for a bathroom, small footprint, excellent functionality for a room as large as an average bedroom.

Not sure what it fits, but I think it will fit even a bathroom vent, however it doesn't move much air.

We gave this to our teenage daughter and she uses in bathroom while showering... and it's very steamy... it's been nearly a year and still going strong... I would say yes it will work but maybe we are just lucky ? I'm not sure if it's really meant for that type setting.. hope that helps a little

We do have a window in the room where the warm air vents. From the outside of our house you really can't see the vent. Overall, I would not recommend this unit - it is big and clunky and difficult to drain the water from (which happens often) and for its large size it only cools the master bedroom and not even really the adjoining master bathroom.

Yes. Just FYI, we liked our unit so much, we ordered two more. It heats the immediate area around it though. When I tried one in my large bathroom, it looked cute but couldn't handle the space.

I have mine sitting in front of me but about 10 feet away. It is strong enough that I get warmth, but don't feel a big breeze. It is a mighty little heater, and I think you would like it. The room I have it in is about 12 x 15 and it heats it up nicely even at the medium settings. So it will heat up a bathroom nicely I think. it heats the whole room, not just the ceiling..hahaha...

The fan should be small enough to fit in a bathroom window. I would make sure to measure both the fan and the window to make sure. This is really a very usable fan for its size. We have two.

Mine vent does not have a fan and it works great. I imagine it would work with the fan as well.

Might need the bigger size for a shower. Check the specks for flow. I remember seeing a chart that detailed the flow rate by unit.

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!

You would want to have a very large bathroom if you were to use this. It is pretty large in size. I have it over my king bed and it is compact and has a very nice look, but it would never fit in my bathroom---which is small 4-5'

Wow, tough question. The ceiling is fairly low in my bathroom and the spring inside the unit is really strong, so I really had to put in some grunt work to get it into place and I was afraid it may pop a hole in the ceiling in the process. It's about 5'9" in my shower. You could probably compress it another 4-6 inches, but again, the spring is strong, so it may take some work, or the pressure from the spring may pop your shelf right off the wall if it isn't really secure. (A plus about the spring: the unit doesn't move once you get it in place!)

Yes, it will work fine. I have mine in an inside shower and faucets in Mexico. It is a 2 story bathroom that is NOT vented outside although both the door and windows remain open and it works just great.

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.

No vent and this isn't a 6' in diameter ~ It's more of a personal size umbrella and I'm assuming why that's why there's no vent

It does get hot so you need to leave space. This is not a freestanding unit so you have to have some kind of counter to actually put it in.

You have to have ductwork, just flexible metal hose to vent the wet air to the outside. Using it without that will do nothing for you or your bathroom.Rich
