Condensation and Prevention
Condensation is particularly rampant during the winter colder months when ventilation within a property is usually lower due to closed doors and windows. This can allow the build up of water vapour within your property and in some cases can cause condensation.
Everyday activities which can cause condensation include cooking, boiling the kettle, drying clothes inside, taking a shower and even breathing.
Identifying Condensation
Some common places where condensation occurs include:
- Windows
- Cold Walls and Floors
- Roof spaces
- Sub-floor areas where there is a timber suspended floor
Common signs include:
- Water droplets collecting on a
- window or windowsill
- Black mould may begin to grow on walls, surfaces and carpets
- A damp musty smell
- Peeling paint or plaster
- Mould on clothes and fabrics
The most common sign of condensation is mould growth. This is normally manifests itself as black spots but can also be green, yellow and even white. There are proven health hazards associated with moulds. The most common being a trigger for asthma.
