How to permanently eliminate moisture

Many people think they can solve the problem of humidity by simply eliminating the apparent symptoms. Cleaning the walls, re-coating or painting, installing moisture absorbers... All this masks the problem that continues to attack the building and the health of the occupants. The effects of humidity on the house worsen over time. These works represent useless expenses that do not treat the cause and therefore do not eliminate the humidity problem. To know how to eliminate humidity permanently, it is essential to identify the cause of the problem. Only a diagnosis of humidity and indoor air quality can effectively eliminate the problem.

The diagnosis allows us to clearly identify the type of humidity present in your home and therefore to define the really effective treatment solution(s) to eliminate humidity permanently. The problem of water penetrating the walls can be eliminated by creating a waterproof barrier with the exclusive solution of concentrated silicone microemulsions. The treatment of moisture related to lateral infiltration of water into underground walls requires the application of a specific multi-layer bi-component waterproof coating that blocks water infiltrations. Condensation due to humidity or poor air quality problems can be treated quickly and permanently by installing a dehumidifier or an air handling unit.

You now know that it is important to eliminate any moisture problem in a house as soon as possible, as it can be harmful to its structure. Is moisture also dangerous to your health?
