DO YOU HAVE A MOULD, damp, condensation?

1. To remove condensation which causes damage to the home.

2. To make a healthier living environment and reduce asthma. 

3. To help alleviate symptoms of hay-fever.   4. To reduce the effects of naturally-occurring Radon gas.   

5. To lessen the impact of VOCs. 

Most people don't associate health problems with the air in their homes, yet there are as many as 900 toxins polluting our indoor air. Certain indoor sources such as pet dander and secondhand smoke have very negative health effects and can lead to serious health issues, such as asthma. 

Dust mites thrive in humid conditions, as their only source of water is from the air. This means that if there are high levels of relative humidity in a home this is the perfect breeding ground for dust mite populations. The higher the humidity, the quicker they will breed.

Mildew is a form of fungus that can grow on cool, moist, or poorly ventilated surfaces in your home.  It is most commonly seen behind furniture on exterior walls, but it can also grow in cabinets and on furniture.  Moulds and mildew are not the same thing, although they do grow in similar conditions, and often indicate that there is an underlying problem with damp or condensation.

Moisture in your home isn't unnatural, in fact did you know for example, 4 people living in a 3 bedroom property would create 112 pints of moisture a week from just breathing, cooking, showering and boiling the kettle.  However if your home is airtight there is nowhere for this moisture to escape and that is where the problems arise.

We are all aware of the dangers of carbon monoxide and protect ourselves using detectors. However, there is actually another invisible indoor air pollutant, in the form of Radon gas.    Radon gas is a naturally occurring radioactive gas, which can enter your home from the ground, exposing you to doses of radiation. According to the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB), health studies from around the world have linked exposure to Radon to the increased risk of lung cancer.
