Condensation is one of the most common forms of household damp and is brought on by poor ventilation
Cold winter air can leave parts of your home feeling damp which can often spawn mould on walls in your home.
He explained: “The main type of damp that central heating helps combat is condensation, often found in rooms that don’t get used as much as others. Another common form of damp is found behind furniture, where air circulation is poor. He advised: “It is important to keep the bathroom door shut so that the moisture doesn't escape into other areas of your home. If it’s not too cold, you should also open a window."
While using heat to combat condensation may increase energy costs, it is nothing compared to what you will end up paying to fix the problem. For those wanting to know how to stop condensation on walls and ceilings in a particular room, consider fitting air bricks. These are bricks with lots of tiny holes in them and can be added to exterior walls, allowing air to pass under a suspended timber floor.
