Condensation Supplies & Services

General information

Condensation is one of the most common causes of dampness in properties. Quite simply condensation is water that is deposited on surfaces from warm, moist air that comes into contact with cold surfaces and is usually seen as a problem during the colder winter months.

Cold air enters a building, the air is warmed for comfort, the warm air takes up and holds moisture, this warm moist air comes into contact with cold surfaces and condensation occurs when excess water is released.

Very often the first indication of condensation is black spot mould growth in the worst affected areas. Condensation can also be seen as misting of windows leading to water droplets and even puddles of water on horizontal surfaces such as window sills.

Other areas typically affected by condensation are cold external walls or pipe work, and where there is poor air circulation, behind items of furniture, in built-in cupboards, or in corners of rooms for example.

Condensation can be addressed by ensuring an adequate balance is achieved between heating, ventilation and insulation. However, more often than not other additional condensation control steps are required to deal with this all too common problem.
