an enlcosed area, it can be draughty and not nice n cosy. Can you tell
me of your experiences pls?!

Thanks


We have a walk-in shower which isn't drafty at all. I once had a tub
shower that was horribly drafty, but it drew air from under the door to
the bathroom. Our shower curtain rod is only about 6" from top of
opening, so there isn't much room for air to circulate into the shower.
Now, I should mention I live in Florida and room air here is rarely
below 75, normally closer to 80. Depends a bit how the room is arranged
and when air warms in the shower, air temp in adjoining room, where does
it pull from and is there room for a lot of circulation.
