What is Condensation?
Air holds moisture in the form of water vapours. Warm air holds more vapour (air humidity). However, as soon as the air gets cooled by touching cold surfaces, it gets converted into water droplets. When warm air filled with water vapours enters your home, it comes in direct contact with cooler surfaces like your interior walls, furniture, kitchen tiles etc. The vapours in the air become water droplets. This process is called condensation.
How Does Condensation Occur?
Condensation occurs when water droplets form on surfaces like walls, furniture, and building interiors. When humid air gets trapped within a building and it touches cold surfaces, the moisture in the air forms the water droplets. Continuously wet walls trigger mould growth. Improving airflow and
How to spot condensation?
Condensation worsens over time as people generally ignore its signs and blame it on weather issues. Most condensation issues are left untreated as initially, people do not diagnose them. However, some noticeable tell-tale signs of condensation are easy to recognise. Identification is the first step towards condensation remedial.
If you see your walls having water droplets on them or their plaster is peeling off while emanating bad odour, then these points towards condensation issues. Also, look for these signs on areas like windows, walls, and ceiling.
Here are some symptoms of condensation to look out for:
- Foggy windows
- Damp Walls
- Peeling wall plaster
- Droplets on walls/ceiling
- Musty smell
- Mould growth on walls
- Black spots on walls/windows

Condensation Treatment:
Most condensation issues can be solved if property owners reduce the humidity inside the building and improve ventilation. Opening windows regularly for cross-ventilation, using the kitchen or bath with extractor fans, and not drying wet clothes inside the rooms. Also applying an Anti-condensation application or paint creates a layer on walls that makes it resistant to condensation. However, for this, you will need the services of professional condensation treatment specialists.

Yes, condensation can be controlled by improving ventilation and using exhaust fans, humidifiers, and anti-condensation paint. Better insulation also helps in controlling condensation.
You can prevent condensation dampness by managing moisture, temperature, airflow, and insulation of your property. Start by installing exhaust fans in high-moisture areas like bathrooms and kitchens. Keep windows open whenever possible for better airflow and ventilation.
Water vapours in air turn into water drops that cause condensation, and dehumidifiers lessen water vapours in the air by reducing air humidity. A dehumidifier can help with mould as they remove extra moisture from air.
The recent issues with condensation that you are facing may be due to unusual weather conditions, changes in air humidity levels, problems in ventilation systems, blocked ventilation or clogged chimneys, etc. You will have to check for these issues. Also, if your building is getting old then, it may be more prone to such issues.
