Condensation Control

Condensation Control

Condensation control in some properties is unfortunately inevitable; if you have tried to control condensation in your home, without any luck, then you have come to the right place. Here at DLD Damp Proofing we have been tackling condensation control for a number of years now, and have the knowledge and expertise to ensure that any unwanted dampness is dealt with in the correct manner.

Get Rid of Dampness With Our Condensation Control Service

Condensation is the most common form of dampness in many homes across the UK, with many people not having the understanding of how to control the issue. It is often the result of poor ventilation and modern day living that causes condensation to get out of hand and create mould growth. If you believe that you have a build-up of condensation, then it is important that you get the correct condensation control system installed. Failure to do so could lead to the internal peeling of interior decor, mould, humidity, moisture and unhealthy living conditions.

The condensation control units that we supply are top quality and extremely effective. Offering a ventilation system that automatically forces air to gently circulate around a building; making condensation control simple!

Condensation Control Has Never Been Easier

Our condensation control units are not only high quality and effective, but they also come at highly competitive rates to ensure you get the best in both quality and value.

What is condensation?

Condensation is where water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water. Whether you live in a listed or a newly built building, condensation can have a significant impact. If condensation is not dealt with right away, then it can develop into much greater and longer-lasting problems, resulting in time consuming, expensive, and disruptive repairs. For example, damp and mould can arise from condensation over time, damaging your walls and furniture, potentially resulting in health risks for you and your family.

What are the causes of condensation?

Condensation usually occurs when the air is cooled to its dew point or it becomes so saturated with water vapor that it cannot hold any more water. The dew point is considered to be the temperature at which condensation happens. When warm air hits a cold surface, the air reaches its dew point and condenses, resulting in condensation.

How can condensation be controlled?

First, it is essential that you control the amount of condensation in your home. For example, using a squeegee to clean water droplets from windows, mirrors, and glass shower dividers whenever it starts to build up can be very useful. As well as ventilation, you can enhance your home’s insulation to keep your walls above the temperature at which the moisture in the air turns into beads of water.

If you don’t already have double glazing, you should consider it as double-glazed windows stay much warmer than single-glazed ones, resulting in less condensation.

How can we help with condensation control?

We can also provide you with a wide range of solutions from humidity-controlled extractors, single room heat recovery and whole house ventilation systems. Our engineers will supply and install the condensation control systems which are completely automated and require no control from the
property inhabitants, ensuring appropriate ventilation as and when required. Our highly trained team of specialists can install condensation control systems with minimum disruption, usually completing the installation process within a single day.

During the installation, we use high-level dust extraction, allowing the property to remain occupied with minimal disruption. Once the condensation control equipment is installed, the electrical connection is made, and an electrical certificate will be issued along with a guarantee certificate. For
your peace of mind, our condensation control systems use low energy technology to ensure minimal running costs.
