Bathroom zoning
OK from what I can gather an extractor fan should be 60 cm for a zone 2,
however I am juggling things around and wondered if the attached although not 60 cmc the fan will be located `round the corner` a 90 degree turn and wouldnt be able to receive a direct splash. I have 267mm from the shower screen and then another 170mm recessed back in the window. The fan would sit where the red line is. Would this be ok, or not?

Assuming the shower screen is "permanent", then the 600mm would be measured horizontally from the nearest edge of the door opening and vertically from the the top edge of the shower screen. John |

Some are rated for powered jets of water not just splashes. |

Trying to avoid ducting if possible (ground floor) as I may have issues with lintels due to location, and I dont have tools for that. Fan is rated IPx4, It certainly wouldnt get any direct hits from splashes as it is `round the corner` |
