Vent Fan And Medicine Cabinets For Bathroom

By Darren Hartley


A bathroom vent fan is an important part of a bathroom. It removes warm, moist air from the bathroom interior to the outdoors as well as exhausts smelly air from the room. Warm, moist air encourages mold growth and may cause bathroom damage.

A modern bathroom vent fan may come complete with a light and even offer a heater option. Its control lies either in a single-pole switch or a wall-mounted timer. It can be positioned over the toilet or in the center of the room. The proper installation of the vent flapper is a must to ensure of its closing when not in use.

What is the purpose of the flapper of a bathroom vent fan, you may ask? Well, it keeps the outdoor cold air from filtering back to the room. On the other hand, the insulation of the fan's flexible hose will keep the building up of condensation caused by the difference between the outer and inner air temperatures.

While both bathroom medicine cabinets and medicine boxes or chests are basically storage containers for medicine and hygienic products, bathroom medicine cabinets are, in general, pasted on the wall at eye-level height while medicine boxes or chests are free-standing and situated on the floor.

Bathroom medicine cabinets are also different from first aid boxes in the items they contain. While both may contain plasters, medicine cabinets contain ointments, pills and creams while first aid boxes contain bandages, tapes and dressings.

By storing only the most essential items in bathroom medicine cabinets, their organization is made simple and easy. All other items are then kept in a nearby drawer or under the sink. As far as the jars kept in the cabinet, they must always be kept clear so their contents are plainly visible and recognizable.

For a couple sharing bathroom medicine cabinets, a problem may arise as to what items each one are allowed to keep. Instead of making a list, though, suffice it to say that the cabinet should contain only the items that are used on a daily basis.
