OnTheBrink Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 It's so you can warm your buns or cool your jets, whichever fits at the time. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 putting a AC/heat vent under the toilet bowl?:001_huh: I mean really? Burrrrrrrr :eek: Can you get a magnetic cover for it to block the air? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenRainbow Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 LOL I wondered that too! In our mobile home, before we moved, the vent in the master bath was right in front of the toilet. I was always so worried the toilet would overflow right into the vent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad 4 Boys Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 That's a simple one that has a quite logical answer. It was the easiest cheapest way to do it. It happens all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionfamily1999 Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I agree with Dad4Boys, dh also wanted to add that it's supposed to reduce the "sweat" from the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelle in MO Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 That's a simple one that has a quite logical answer. It was the easiest cheapest way to do it. It happens all the time. I don't like that answer! I want people to do things "right", which of course means "my way"--:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidsHappen Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I have one directly over the toilet. That isn't much better. I shut that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denisemomof4 Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 It's so you can warm your buns or cool your jets, whichever fits at the time. :lol: yes, this, and it's to kill two birds with one stone: warm your buns/cool your jets while "taking care of business."

Mynyel Posted August 3, 2010 Author Share Posted August 3, 2010 ROFL I am glad I am not the only one. Yes it is a double wide so apparently it is common in them. Hmmm maybe a double wide isn't in my future for renting. No I can't really cover it, dh gets testy when I do. It "blocks the cool air". :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alenee Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Probably the same logic the person was using when they put all my floor vents just below every window in the house, using single pane windows.:glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairnmama Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I have one right beside the toilet, too (and it's under the window to boot!). Of course, I live in a remodeled 100 yr old farmhouse and that bathroom is so tiny it's about the only place the vent could be.... unless you want it under the sink or right in front of the shower, lol!

Lara in Colo Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 My first condo was a two story loft (the upstairs was totally open) The heater vents were on the ceiling for the main floor. So you either freezed downstairs or boiled upstairs (and spent a fortune) because all the heat went upstairs. Also upstairs had 3 vents, downstairs 1.

Mrs Mungo Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 It "blocks the cool air". :rolleyes: No, it just redistributes it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ME-Mommy Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 (edited) ROFL I am glad I am not the only one. Yes it is a double wide so apparently it is common in them. Hmmm maybe a double wide isn't in my future for renting. No I can't really cover it, dh gets testy when I do. It "blocks the cool air". :rolleyes: Yes, it's common in mobile homes -- they run the duct work in a straight line and place the vents every so far...even under the toilet!! :lol: And, the PP was correct -- it's a matter of the cheapest way to get the job done. Our guest bathroom in our double wide was that way -- that's why I asked. As if that wasn't bad enough, they put another one right in front of the shower stall -- so when you got out, you stepped on it...brrrrr Edited August 3, 2010 by ME-Mommy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelle in MO Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 You have vents?? The previous owners put in a beautiful very beautiful hard wood floor on the whole main floor of the house. But they didn't want to spoil the look, or do he work of cutting holes for the vents. So they covered every single vent, intake and output vent on the whole floor. :glare: So now we get the fun:glare: of trying to figure out where those vents and the duct work should be. Weird people.

MissKNG Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Who is your manufacturer? (to those who have mobile homes) Ours is a Four Seasons and we have toe kick vents under the sink in both bathrooms. Right along the bottom of the vanity. ETA: ours is considered "modular" but all Four Seasons have toe kicks in the bathrooms, kitchen, and living areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ME-Mommy Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 We sold ours...but I think it was a Skyline. It was very cheaply built... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
