Condensation in home is formed from airborne moisture turning from water vapour to liquid, this is naturally occurring as there is moisture in the air at all times. When air cools or expands, it is unable to hold moisture because water is heavier than air, which means small droplets of water are formed.
Condensation in home is caused by changing temperatures. Water vapour constantly floats around the property and is pretty much harmless, but it's only when it comes into contact with something cold, that it starts to become troublesome.
When water vapour hits something cold, like a window or a poorly insulated surface, the vapour drops in temperature and loses strength. It can no longer hold onto its water content and drops onto the colder surface. The deposit of water is what you see as condensation. You can expect to see condensation on any surface where the cold air outside comes into contact with the warmth of the home. You can expect to find condensation on windows and poorly insulated walls.
Condensation is important to treat as it can lead to black mould. Black mould is a naturally occurring fungus which can lead to many health issues.
