Brands like Sylvox or Séura make TVs specifically sealed against water jets and steam. < br > Heated Screens: These special TVs have heated glass fronts so they don't fog up when the room gets steamy.

< h2 > 4. Electrical Code(GFCI) < p > The TV MUST be plugged into a GFCI(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet.If water ever gets into the outlet, the power cuts instantly to prevent electrocution.
