Bathroom vent dripping water — Nicosia, Nicosia
Water dripping from a bathroom exhaust vent is usually caused by condensation forming inside the duct when warm, moist bathroom air meets cold surfaces in the attic or exterior wall. An improperly insulated or excessively long duct run, a missing or stuck backdraft damper, or a duct that terminates inside the attic instead of outside all create conditions for condensation. In rare cases the drip signals a roof leak above the vent penetration. An HVAC technician can insulate the duct, replace the damper, reroute the vent to a proper exterior termination, and check for roof-related water intrusion.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in Nicosia
Air conditioning is a year-round necessity rather than a seasonal one: Nicosia is consistently the hottest city in Cyprus (40°C+ summers with no sea breeze), so AC/HVAC failures in July–August are genuine emergencies, and occasional winter frost adds a heating-side load the coastal cities barely see. Commercial buildings drive large-system VRF and chiller maintenance. F-Gas certified technicians (EU regulation) are required for refrigerant handling.

Spoeddienst in Nicosia
Emergency services in Nicosia respond within 30–90 minutes across the urban core and the Strovolos/Aglandjia/Engomi/Lakatamia suburban belt (faster in the centre, slower in outlying villages and right up against the buffer zone). Callout rates run €40–€120 plus €30–€55/hour. As the capital it has the island's deepest contractor pool, but Russian-speaking dispatcher availability is more limited than in Limassol — most operate in Greek and English first.
