Bathroom Mould and DMEV Ventilation For Crewe Homes

Persistent bathroom mould is one of the most common problems we see in homes across Crewe. Black mould on ceilings, grout, or around windows isn’t just unsightly — it’s a clear sign that moisture isn’t being removed effectively after showers or baths.

While cleaning can help temporarily, the real solution lies in continuous ventilation — and that’s where DMEV systems come in.

💨 Why Bathroom Mould Keeps Coming Back

Every shower fills your bathroom with warm, humid air. When that air cools on cold surfaces like ceilings or tiled walls, it releases moisture as condensation.

Over time, this creates perfect conditions for mould growth — especially in corners or along silicone joints where air circulation is poor.

Traditional extractor fans often fail because they:

Only run on a timer
Are too noisy to leave on for long
Don’t move enough air to prevent condensation

That’s why homeowners across Crewe are switching to DMEV systems for long-term moisture control.

⚙️ How DMEV Fans Work

DMEV (Decentralised Mechanical Extract Ventilation) fans run continuously at a low, quiet rate and automatically boost airflow when humidity rises — for example, during a shower.

This ensures that:
✅ Moisture is extracted before it settles on walls or ceilings
✅ Humid air is replaced with fresh, filtered air
✅ Condensation and black mould can’t return

All DMEV systems installed by Weather Wise Solutions are Part F Building Regulations compliant, energy efficient, and designed for low maintenance.

🧼 The Long-Term Benefits

Installing a DMEV fan in your bathroom not only removes existing damp problems but also helps to:

Reduce mould spores in the air
Improve indoor air quality
Protect paint, plaster, and grout
Lower the risk of asthma and allergies

For ongoing prevention, pairing DMEV extraction with good heating control and open trickle vents gives your home the best balance of air movement and comfort.
