@ww 🩶 > i have to wait after i turn it on, like for the fresh warm water to push all the stale now-cold water out. i don't mind it so much, cause at that point i'm not wet yet.

Yeah, same, that's normal.

but when it gets cold mid-shower, that's very annoying..

Yeah that's slumlord behavior. Not supposed to happen.

i've lived in only like 3 apartments with extraction fans maybe, are they for humidity? here only has a window..

They're more common here because mold is a serious problem with winter cold. At least, I think that's why they are, because it is.

(And it clearly doesn't draw enough air to address scents fast enough to be worth the hassle of installing.)
