Plumbers are in, and the pump/heater in the bathroom needs to be relocated. They are about to place it directly above the shower.
Doesn't sound too bright to me, as each time the shower is used condensation will form and rise directly at the unit, and over time corrode the metal box and also find its way inside the unit and parts. Not sure if they've considered that water + electric is not a healthy combo.
Now, there is a false ceiling in the bathroom, and I'm pretty sure of the answers but will ask anyway:
a) should the unit be placed above the false ceiling, where it will be isolated by a standard sheet of that polywhatever stuff they use because it's cheap?
b) does placing the unit above the false ceiling lead to new issues or other concerns I should have?
Once above the false ceiling, it seems to me that a length of pipe could be used for added safety to move the unit even further away from being directly above the shower.
