A breath of fresh air
- ventilation
Your energy-efficient, new windows have
been designed to keep the warmth in and the
cold out.
This means they are more draught proof and
weather proof than your old windows and, as
a result, will prevent moisture from entering
or escaping. To prevent mould or condensa-
tion forming, make sure to leave vents open
at all times. Even if glazed-in or trickle vents
are 'close-able' via a pull cord, they should
remain open.
External Condensation
Occasionally you may find condensation
on the outer pane of your windows, this is
because energy-efficient windows keep all
the warmth inside (where it belongs!) so heat
does not transfer to the external pane. As the
daytime temperature rises, the condensation
will disappear naturally.
Internal condensation
Condensation can be a slight problem in
rooms where high humidity is present.
Houseplants, drying washing and storage of
firewood can all have an effect. The most
effective solution is managing the amount of
moisture created (extractor fans in kitchens
and bathrooms etc).
