        "text": "Proper ventilation and reliable mold protection are critical for guest bathrooms in humid Florida communities like Brandon and Tampa. In these climates, outdoor humidity mixes with hot shower steam, creating conditions where mildew thrives on drywall and grout. A high-efficiency exhaust fan rated for the room's square footage must be installed and vented directly to the exterior. Additionally, using mold-resistant drywall, water-impermeable tile backer boards, and properly pitched shower pans prevents moisture from accumulating behind finished walls.",
