I live in a pretty cramped in sharehouse and there is a shower in my room, directly next to the shower is my desk with my PC on it. Could the steam from the shower damage my pc? If so is there anyway I can prevent this? (ie cover my pc with a blanket of some kind when I have a shower to reduce the condensation (if that even works like that)). I know this is a potentially idiotic question but I just wanna game after work, man… thanks guys,

Also, there is a ceiling shower fan that I have turned on whilst I shower, although i doubt that helps much as sometimes I exit the shower and my mirror will be foggy for a while. I only just got my computer out of storage now.

      Nah it’s just an extractor fan. HVAC is a generalised term for Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning. Which can be a whole bunch of systems. As for can the shower damage it? Yes, yes it can. I’d move the PC as far away from the shower as possible. Turn down the shower temperature as then there will be less water vapour. Use some silica desiccant moisture traps around the PC also.
