Bathroom Fan Cleaning

A clogged bathroom fan can't remove moisture. Our cleaning helps prevent mold and air quality problems.
Bathroom Fan Cleaning

Votre ventilateur de salle de bain fait un bruit d’enfer quand vous l’allumez? Y évacue plus l’humidité comme avant pis vos miroirs restent embués longtemps? Ça sent le moisi même après avoir nettoyé toute la salle de bain?

The problem is that your exhaust fan is probably clogged with mold, dust pis moisture residues that prevent him from doing his job properly.

Why do bathroom fans get dirty so quickly?

Constantly humid environment

Bathrooms are the most wet of the house. This moisture, mixed with normal dust, creates a sticky paste that sticks all over the fan.

Residue-laden steam

The steam from showers carries soap particles, shampoo, body oils and other residues that settle in the drainage system.

Frequent use with poor maintenance

Most people use their fans several times a day but never think of cleaning them. The result: a gradual build-up that reduces efficiency.

Mould growth

Constant humidity and warmth create the perfect environment for the growth of mold pis bacteria in the fan.

FAQ – Nettoyage de ventilateur de salle de bain

Comment savoir si mon ventilateur de salle de bain a vraiment besoin d’un nettoyage professionnel?

Sur le terrain, les signes sont presque toujours les mêmes : le bruit augmente, l’humidité reste trop longtemps après la douche, pis une odeur de moisi s’installe même si la salle de bain est propre. Quand on ouvre le ventilateur chez les clients, on trouve souvent une pâte noire collante de poussière, savon et moisissures. À ce stade-là, un coup de chiffon ne suffit plus.

Pourquoi mon ventilateur est sale même si ma salle de bain est propre?

C’est un classique. La saleté n’est pas visible parce qu’elle est à l’intérieur : dans la turbine, le moteur et le conduit. La vapeur de douche transporte des résidus microscopiques qui se collent partout. On a nettoyé des salles de bain impeccables avec des ventilateurs complètement obstrués.

Est-ce dangereux de laisser un ventilateur de salle de bain encrassé?

Oui, surtout à long terme. L’humidité mal évacuée favorise les moisissures dans le plafond, les murs et même les conduits. On a vu des clients devoir refaire de la peinture ou du gypse simplement parce que le ventilateur ne faisait plus sa job depuis des années.

Pourquoi mon ventilateur fait-il autant de bruit soudainement?

Dans 80 % des cas, c’est l’accumulation sur la turbine. Le ventilateur force, vibre et le moteur s’use prématurément. On a souvent évité un remplacement complet simplement avec un bon nettoyage et une lubrification adéquate.

Est-ce que je peux nettoyer mon ventilateur moi-même?

Vous pouvez enlever la grille et aspirer un peu, oui. Mais le vrai problème est plus loin : moteur, pales, conduit et sortie extérieure. Sans démonter correctement ni couper l’alimentation, on voit souvent des nettoyages incomplets… ou des bris électriques.

Nettoyez-vous aussi le conduit du ventilateur?

Toujours. Nettoyer juste le ventilateur sans toucher au conduit, c’est comme laver un évier sans déboucher le drain. On a vu des conduits presque bouchés par de la poussière humide et même des nids d’oiseaux à la sortie extérieure.

À quelle fréquence faut-il nettoyer un ventilateur de salle de bain au Québec?

Pour une maison standard, aux 12 à 18 mois. Avec notre climat humide l’été et les douches chaudes l’hiver, ça s’encrasse vite. Dans les gyms, salons ou logements à forte utilisation, c’est souvent aux 6 à 12 mois.

Est-ce que le nettoyage aide vraiment contre les odeurs de moisi?

Oui, parce qu’on enlève la source. Les désodorisants ne font que masquer. Après un vrai nettoyage, plusieurs clients nous disent que l’odeur disparaît dès la première douche. C’est un commentaire qu’on entend souvent.

Que se passe-t-il si mon ventilateur est trop vieux ou endommagé?

On vous le dit franchement. Certains modèles de 20–25 ans sont rendus inefficaces ou dangereux. Dans ces cas-là, on recommande le remplacement plutôt que de vous faire payer pour un nettoyage qui ne donnera pas de bons résultats.

Combien de temps prend un nettoyage complet?

En général entre 60 et 90 minutes par ventilateur, selon l’état et l’accessibilité. On ne bâcle pas le travail : démontage, nettoyage, tests de débit et de bruit avant de repartir.

Est-ce que le nettoyage peut améliorer l’humidité dans toute la maison?

Oui, surtout dans les condos et maisons mal ventilés. Un ventilateur de salle de bain fonctionnel aide énormément à contrôler l’humidité globale. On a vu des problèmes de condensation diminuer juste avec ça.

Pourquoi confier ça à Ventilation Vortex Air?

Parce qu’on ne fait pas juste “nettoyer vite”. On démonte, on inspecte, on nettoie le conduit, on teste la performance et on vous montre la différence. On connaît les modèles les plus courants au Québec, pis on sait exactement où ils posent problème avec notre climat.
