Most of us come across condensation in our homes. It is because vapours are produced in numbers of processes such as cooking, bathing, washing etc. that cool down and settle on glasses or such other surfaces to take the form of condensation. It means condensation refers to the water content that has been produced as a result of cooling down of vapours produced in certain tasks or those present in the atmosphere. It means condensation gives rise to dampness at any place. Almost all people are aware about damage caused due to dampness at any place and especially in residential buildings. That is why it is very much important to treat and prevent condensation so that the hazards arising due to it may be prevented automatically. Now we will look at some of the chief reasons that make treatment and prevention of condensation a must for your place.
To prevent dampness- As stated above, condensation is one of the chief reasons for occurrence of dampness at any place. Hence it is very much important to treat and prevent condensation so as to prevent dampness automatically. Anyone can see various surfaces such as those of glass, wood or timber made wet due to condensation. Prolonged exposure of such surfaces to moisture content results in damage to these structure. Therefore it is very much important and essential to treat and prevent condensation so that dampness may also be prevented automatically.
To prevent growth of mould and mildew- The growth of mould and mildew both of which are quite hazardous for health of human beings is quite common at damp places. These give rise to foul smell at the place of origin and the surrounding structures. To prevent such an unpleasant smell, it is necessary to treat and prevent condensation and in turn dampness.
Prevention of health issues among human population- Large numbers of respiratory as well as other health issues are caused due to attack of mould and mildew. It means mould and mildew is not at all good for human population. To protect human beings or inmates of any place against health hazards caused due to growth of mould and mildew, it is quite important to get rid of condensation.
Retain strength of structures of the building- Since condensation gives rise to dampness at any place therefore it results in weakening of the structures at any place. It means large scale damage may be caused to the structures of any building if it is allowed to remain exposed to dampness caused due to condensation. To prevent such damage and weakening of the structures of any building, it is very much important to treat and prevent condensation.
To avoid wastage of time and money- As stated above, condensation gives rise to dampness which in turn leads to damage to the structures of the concerned place. Also it is hazardous for health of the inmates of the concerned property. It means considerable amount of money and time is required for repairs and replacement of the damaged structures as well as medical treatment of the inmates. To avoid such unnecessary wastage of money, it is advisable to treat and prevent condensation by taking apt measures.
All these points are perhaps enough to indicate towards importance of treatment and prevention of condensation at any place.
