I am nearly finished with a bathroom remodel, and tried out the new shower today. It seems that the new shower head is producing a lot more water vapor (as compared to my previous shower head which was a Hansgrohe purchased in the early/mid 1990's) resulting in considerably more condensation on walls (including interior walls that were at normal room temperature), ceiling, and virtually every other surface. The new bath is the same footprint as the old, and uses the same fairly high capacity exhaust fan, although we used to have a closed shower stall area, and now the stall is open on top to the rest of the room. Indoor (and outdoror) humidity levels are fairly low. I am wondering if the new "high end" shower head is creating a finer spray, resulting in more water vapor being put into the air. In general, are these newer shower heads more likely to fog up a bathroom? Anyone else notice this phenomenon?
