Thanks, food for thought!When I moved into my house we had mould behind furniture upstairs so I bought a dehumidifier which did the trick.
I found the cooker hood was on recirculate. I then ducted it to outside and the dehumidifier is now redundant.
Don't forget that for an extractor to work you need air to come in! I've worked in numerous buildings where fans were in sealed rooms. One had a 9" Ventaxia which you could hear speed up whenever the door was opened!
I could try and connect the cooker hood to the outside but he piping wouldn't look pretty and think the management may not like the outcome.
The house leaks air like a sieve with air coming in everywhere, we have ledge and brace bent doors which plug a gap but dont seal, so it can only get better.
Thanks
