    Thinking about getting a ClairLite for our bathroom since it has no window and gets a bit musty. Does it actually help with that kind of closed up room or is it more for open spaces? I don’t need anything fancy, just want to cut down on the smell between cleanings. Anyone use theirs in a similar setup?

    Mine cut down the musty smell in our basement bathroom noticeably after a few uses.

    Ours didn’t do much for the smell in a windowless half bath, to be honest. The room felt a little fresher right after but the musty smell came back by the next day, so I ended up relying on a small dehumidifier instead. Curious whether yours has a fan vent, since that made more difference for us than anything.

    There’s a small vent fan in the ceiling but it’s one of those builder-grade ones that never felt like it moved much air, and honestly I don’t run it as consistently as I should. Our bathroom is pretty tiny too, maybe 5 by 7, so I figured a compact unit would be plenty for that footprint. That’s partly why I’m still on the fence about whether the ClairLite is worth it here or if I’d just be chasing the same cycle you described.

    That vent fan is probably the missing piece more than the lamp is. In a 5×7 room I’d try actually running that ceiling fan every time someone showers for a week or two, just to see if the smell changes before spending money on a sanitizer. Mine only started helping once the room actually dried out between uses.

    I picked one up mainly for our downstairs guest bath and it has made a difference with that closed-in smell. The thing that surprised me is it takes a bit longer than I expected. The first couple of times I ran it I wasn’t impressed, but after using it a few times a week for maybe three weeks, the room stopped having that stale smell when you walk in. I also like that I can just set the timer and leave the room, no spraying stuff everywhere. It’s not going to replace actually scrubbing the toilet or anything, but for the between-cleaning smell situation it did what I hoped. Curious if you’ve tried just leaving the door open sometimes too?
