Condensation Solutions Belfast
Condensation is frequently the result of internal water production, poor heating and inadequate ventilation. Important factors for condensation are excess moisture production and temperature.
Condensation can be controlled by a few simple a adjustments. PPNI can measure the relative humidity and temperature within a property and from this work out the dew point temperature [when moisture laden air condenses to water] and advise on what action to take. We provide snapshot surveys [conditions on the day of survey] to give us an indication of conditions within the property. We also provide long term assessments of the environment i.e. weekly, fortnightly using data loggers whilst the property is functional and from theses results decide the best option of combating condensation. We also work closely with a reputable ventilation specialist for extreme situations of poorly insulated and high humidity properties to install ECO-PIV SYSTEMS [positive input ventilation systems] they include relative humidity and carbon dioxide sensors which automatically adjust to maintain good indoor air quality.
Dry Rot & Wet Rot Treatment Belfast
Outbreaks of dry rot and wet rot start in similar ways. The mature fruiting bodies of wood-destroying fungi that develop during an attack produce millions of microscopic spores which are widely dispersed by air currents. If they land on untreated damp wood they will germinate and another outbreak is inevitable.
They can both affect buildings of all ages and when discovered it should be identified as to which rot it is and remedial action taken without delay. Dry rot [SERPULA LACRYMANS] is the most aggressive of wood destroying fungi and can have devastating effects within a property. Wet rots aren’t as aggressive and are typically confined to the damp area as its mycelium does not spread into masonry unlike dry rot. PPNI has the expert knowledge in the identification dry/wet rots in order to provide the essential treatment to prevent recurrence.
