Damage Control: Managing Moisture Intrusion and Ventilation
Moisture intrusion is the most significant and damaging type of building performance problem. Moisture from snow, rain or condensation can lead to mold, rot and material deterioration. While problems can often be traced to poor workmanship during construction, deferred maintenance and design errors are also to blame.
Improper
ventilation is the second major cause of building damage. Airborne moisture
generally collects in the attic space. If the attic is not properly ventilated,
the built-up moisture will reduce the performance of insulation, cause mold,
and in extreme conditions, lead to structural damage. Improper ventilation of
the roof can also be a major cause of ice dams and reduced life of roofing
shingles.
This webinar discusses what you need to know about moisture intrusion and ventilation to protect, preserve and repair your property.
