Is Moisture a Good or a Bad Sign?

​A healthy home is one that is conducive for living, where occupants thrive well in terms of health and comfort.

Your HVAC system’s goal is to create conditioned air, which is free from pollutants, allergens, and is temperature-regulated. The heating or cooling unit provides the temperature-regulated air while a ventilation system makes sure that the right amount of air circulates to prevent condensation to take place.
 
Meanwhile, your insulation system should be able to maintain the conditioned air by sealing the space and prevent heat transfer from the outside environment to the inside and vice versa. Sometimes, it can also serve as an air filter to keep outside allergens and bad particulates in the air to come inside, just like what spray foam insulation does.

Moisture in homes is inevitable and is a normal occurrence out of normal daily activities like hot showers, making coffee, etc. The right level of moisture prevents the air from drying out. As you know, dry air can cause discomfort in our sinuses, as well as dry, cracking skin. Wooden furnishings and furniture also suffer damage from lack of moisture since it dries and splits.
 
Aside from the things that cause the lack of, or excessive, moisture at home, some locations are more or are less humid than the others. If the climate is already the culprit, you have to take general steps to address it in your home like installing humidifiers or dehumidifiers, depending on its state. This requires a prior audit or assessment from a professional.
 
Meanwhile, problems arise when moisture becomes excessive that it not only inconveniences you but also poses health issues and damage to your home. How do you know if moisture is already something that needs more attention?

Signs of Moisture Problems

​Moisture is the product of a natural process called condensation. This happens when warm air approaches a cold surface then releases the vapor in the form of water. This is exactly what happens when you make hot coffee beside a glass window.
 
Moisture is part of our day-to-day lives but it becomes a serious problem when it is too much that it can stimulate the growth of molds, as well as compromise our home’s structural stability.

​Molds and Mildew

​Perhaps you can associate mold with that green stuff in your bread that is left in the counter for so long. You would not want to eat molded bread since it is gross and harms your health. Tossing the old bread in the bin generally solves the problem.
 
Or is it?
 
Actually, mold is not everything green and visible. Yes, molds can already be lurking in your home without you knowing.
 
How would you know, then?
 
It is when you start suffering from strange allergies, discomfort, or other symptoms that are not associated with anything obvious until you start seeing your doctor.
 
Mold needs moisture and organic material to nurture bacterial growth. And molds can sprout in your HVAC system since it is the gateway of air. The conditioned air it supplies your home can be a transport for the bacteria to further spread in your home.

​Excessive Moisture in the Building Envelope

​Moisture is the enemy of building materials. It compromises its stability and poses serious damage without you even knowing until it collapses one day. While builders implement measures on controlling moisture or preventing buildup, it is still likely that it can enter your home given imperfect systems in place.

​​Spray foam insulation takes advantage of the material, spray foam – a compound formed out of combining polyol resin and isocyanate. The resulting material is low-density and able to expand about 30 to 60 times its original size.
 
Here are the key characteristics of spray foam that makes it ideal for use in insulation systems:
  • It expands to fit cavities and enclosed areas
  • It is pliable to help create continuous insulation over obstructions like pipelines, conduits, and wirings
  • It is low-density; does not sag over time
  • Offers higher thermal resistance compared with other insulating materials
  • Closely-packed cells filter the air as it passes through it
  • Non-combustible
  • Impenetrable to moisture

Being a moisture barrier is just one of the vast benefits of deploying spray foam insulation in Goshen, Indiana homes. Spray foam prevents moisture from penetrating or from building up in two ways:
  • It adds a vapor barrier, which keeps the air that contains moisture from entering the home
  • It seals the building envelope to keep the conditioned air within the confines of the home from escaping
 
Spray foam insulation works with your HVAC system by helping the conditioned air remain inside. In having a system like this, there is little room for moisture to develop through condensation, leaving no chances for molds to thrive.
 
Meanwhile, the capacity of spray foam insulation to bar moisture-laden air from coming inside also helps in decreasing the chances of moisture to penetrate your home’s structure.
