Dry Out Walls

What is the cause of moist walls?

There are several reasons for moist walls. Here is a brief overview of some causes, whereby the sequence is not to be understood as the frequency of occurrence:

• Building moisture – that is the moisture that is present in the building materials and has not yet dried out.
• Cold or thermal bridges which can lead to condensation;
• Humidifier or incorrect ventilation, which can lead to condensation water
• Broken pipes
• A broken roof where it can rain through
• Missing or broken sealing around the house – against seepage or pressure water from the slope
• Driving rain or splash water
• Rising capillary soil moisture in houses without or with a broken horizontal barrier

With so many different types of moisture, you are well advised to call in an expert who will make an accurate analysis and show you exactly what types of moisture you have in your home.

Increased moisture in the walls can promote the formation of mould, i.e. all of the types of moisture listed above can lead to mould growth in your house. If this is already the case – take a look at our solution for mould infestation.

Moist walls – what to do?

The masonry diagnostic analysis has shown that your house suffers from rising ground moisture. This is where our RENODRY devices come in. Depending on the thickness of your walls and the number of square meters of your house, our expert will choose the right device for you. He will discuss with you where the device will be hung approximately.

The rising capillary ground moisture is the moisture we can help you with with our RENODRY technology.

Dehydrate your walls

Once you have decided in favour of our advanced RENODRY technology, you make an appointment with our technician. The technician will then take measurements again and make the final decision about where to hang the RENODRY device. And then he installs the device. The installation is precisely documented, and measurement protocols are prepared. As a customer, you will of course receive a copy.

Monitoring of the drying phase

Depending on which service package you have chosen, the technician will come to you 2 to 3 more times and take measurements. These measurements document the progress of the drying process. During the last measurement you will then receive confirmation that the affected walls are now dry.

Maintaining a pleasant indoor climate

Just leave the device hanging and it will ensure that you can continue to live in your home without being annoyed by rising soil moisture.
