Good morning, good afternoon or good evening, depending on when you’re watching this video. I’m Rachael Goldsworthy, checking in with you on the drive home to Hawksbury, and I’m in a different location, in a bathroom. Just wanting to show you an exhaust fan which is just up here. There we go, just up there you can see, and that exhaust fan is a little bit dirty.

Now, the reason I bring that to your attention, and it might seem a really simple thing, but if those exhaust fans aren’t cleaned properly they can’t take the [00:00:30] air, the hot air um that’s rising out of the bathroom when you’re having the shower, the condensation into the cavity of the roof and take it away from the ceiling. Because what happens is that condensation gathers on the ceiling and then eventually it will cause peeling on the ceiling in the bathroom, which is a, quite a common thing when people-, I know wintertime comes and you don’t want to turn the fan on because it’s a little bit cool and those sorts of things, but it also has a flow-on effect if you’re not turning the fan on on a regular basis. Summertime’s a little bit easier; [00:01:00] you want to turn the fan on cause it makes the place nice and cool as you’re having a shower as well, but equally, this is just an important thing to mention to people when they’re having a shower and using and looking after the, the maintenance of a rental property.

Anyway, if you have any other questions in regards to property management or maintenance of properties, I’m more than happy to help. I’m Rachael Goldsworthy, and I look forward to catching up with you on the next video.
