Well they are meant to keep the heat and steam in the shower enclosure, is your bath fully enclosed?
I have a shower with one fitted, and they do work well.
Quite expensive, and DO NOT try to fit it yourself, they tend to shatter rather easily.

No its not Charl .... so i guess it wont work . Im getting mildew on the roof , Ive put a powered vent with heat lights in ... Ive trained the flatmates to open the window when their done , but still it comes.
Last resort will be to remove the bath and replace it with a shub and then fit the dome .

The cheaper solution, I'm sure they must still have them market , this was going back before I brought my place it was a independent shower and lighting stream extractor , very similar to what you can put in Kitchens. Sure these are the same example they had that rental

Its really hard sometimes when all 3 of them "need" the bathroom at the same time ... and each takes 20 minutes , and Im late as well ... ive been forced out twice this week (and its only wednesday) to work , un brushed and wild looking. There is space here to build another bathroom , which would cut the waiting time down .... but im not paying.
So from tonight , I made a rule... if you start at 0600 , get up at 0400 etc , and if more than 2 start at the same time get up even earlier ..... but whatever you do ... Im in the shower at 0700 and if you need it , you have to share.
And while im on the subject ... dont hang your underwear on my desk!! (near the heat pump) to dry .... and stop leaving your shoes in the hallway for me to trip over in the dark .... jeezz.
Tell you what guys ... it might sound good .... but its bloody hard work.

you want to get them through quickly - here's the trick. Guy in the states had the same problem.
He got an old video camera ( was only the case and not in working order ) and rigged it up facing the shower with wires connected to it on obvious display. Then told the kids that he had a timer rigged to the water and that if the shower went longer than 10mins then it started filming and uploading to You tube live! Reckoned that it worked a treat.
