Interesting. It might work if the room inlet is in the bathroom and a
windo=
w was ajar/door closed and so the moist air is pushed outside.

I've been considering a central heat recovery unit (Vent Axia does some)
to=
pull moist air out of the bathrooms and expel it, recovering some of the h=
eat on the way.

...getting a bit off-topic (though I suppose the fan might need a bit of
au=
tomation!)

We've got a similar system in our rented house and quite frankly hate=

It's turned the hall/stairs/landing into an ice box.
