Condensation Control

The water in the air can come from a variety of activities within the home, for example:-

• Cooking / Boiling Kettle

• Washing

• Drying Clothes

• Bath / Shower

All houses will suffer from some condensation from time to time, but severe condensation is a very common problem particularly in cold weather and in older houses. As well as water streaming down windows and on to window sills, water may collect directly on walls, especially behind large pieces of furniture and curtains.

If wood, wallpaper and plaster are badly affected they will become permanently damp and mould will start to grow (usually the black spot mould). Over a prolonged period, wood will rot and plaster may become perished.

The cure for condensation is finding the correct balance of heat and ventilation, this is often difficult due to modern living.
