Tado SRV's suitable for humid shower room or bathroom?
Hello, are the Tado SRV's suitable for a small shower room which will get very humid and possibly dripping condensation forming on some surfaces but no direct splashes or water?
Or a bathroom, used occasionally for baths, which gets a damp atmosphere but again, no direct splashes of water from the bath?
Shower room, humid every day, bathroom only humid when a bath taken, most occupants now have showers instead.
If SRV's were used, would excessive humidity/damp damage the sensor on the SRV? I take it the maximum humidity possible is 100%, would this, on a regular basis in the shower room, take a toll on the sensor in the SRV?
There are also two types of Tado SRV's to my knowledge. The basic ones don't have a humidity sensor, would these be better in this environment?
Is there an actual IP rating on the SRV's?
Thanks for your time.

The SRVs have a rating of 20, so no protection against ingress by moisture or liquids. Tado state bathrooms are okay if condensation is avoided. A bit difficult to take a hot bath/shower without getting some condensation.

We have SRVs on the bathroom and en-suite rads. Not noticed any issue in more than 12 months. Not replaced the batteries either.

Thanks for that, IP20 is to stop objects the size of fingers getting in! So, as you say not really anything to so with wet or moisture protection.
I thought they may not actually have been allowed in a bathroom.
Thanks for the link, didn't see it.
