Understanding Condensation and the Internal Environment

What is salt damp?
Nitrate, chloride, sulphate and ammonium salts are found in building structures. Nitrate and chloride salts most commonly originate in the ground. Their presence in plasterwork is usually an indication of rising damp, hydrostatic or below ground damp or flood damage. Nitrate and chloride salts are hygroscopic, causing them to retain moisture and absorb additional moisture […]
How to test for damp
Testing for dampness using a conductivity ‘pin’ type meter is intended to allow the user to compare readings in order to interpret the pattern and deduce the likely cause(s). Do not use the meter to justify expensive building works without consulting a qualified expert because high conductivity readings can be caused by ‘salts’, foil backed […]
DAMP AND BLACK SPOT MOULD ON INTERNAL WALLS
In this day of saving energy, most properties are now becoming draught-proof. This, in itself, is causing problems. Condensation occurs when vapour is cooled and compressed to its saturation limit. When properties have had double glazing, insulation, better fitted doors, etc., there is nowhere for this cooled vapour to go and so it will […]
