Electric heat loss from solid walls can be as high as 45% and the cold nature of the walls can also lead to damp from condensation.

The warm moist air in a room meets the cold surface of a solid wall and the water vapour can form water droplets leading to damp patches on walls and also to the growth of black spot mould.

Insufficient ventilation can also aggravate the problem as can too much insulation and draughtproofing. Ventilation from air bricks or window trickle vents can help a liitle but the only real long term solution is to make the walls warmer.

At Multiguard we have a range of solutions for dealing with “hard to heat” homes including revolutionary new technologies that will not only make for a warmer living environment but will eradicate condensation damp and mould.
