What is condensation damp
Condensation occurs when the water vapour in indoor air meets cold surfaces —external walls, corners, ceilings, behind wardrobes— and turns into liquid water. It is the cause of black mould, misted-up windows and that damp feeling even without any leak. In well-sealed, poorly ventilated Barcelona flats it is the most common type of damp.
How it is solved
Condensation is not fixed with a permanent dehumidifier: you tackle its cause. The solution combines controlled mechanical ventilation (MVHR) to renew the air and expel excess humidity, and the correction of thermal bridges with insulation where the wall gets cold.

Health, not just aesthetics
Condensation mould is not just unsightly: its spores affect indoor air quality and can aggravate allergies and respiratory problems. Solving the condensation improves the healthiness of your home.
