Damp

                                

Sub-floor damp is very common and when not treated correctly could have a very damaging effect on your home.

When the ground beneath your home is damp it relaces moisture, mould spores and smells into the air. If this air is trapped beneath your floor it will be evaporated through your timber floor into the living space.

This evaporation can cause a number of problems to occur;

  • Timber floors to warp, bow and rot
  • Mould growth on furniture, clothes, shoes, walls ceilings and in cupboards
  • Damp musty smells
  • Implications for asthma and allergy sufferers
  • Termites love damp dark sub-floor areas to breed and build their tracks up into your home to feed on the timber in your floors walls and roof.

All of these problems can be very expensive to fix and may adversely affect the value of your property.

We have designed a range of low voltage fans and matching passive vents to create airflow for sub-floor area. The fans run off a timer normally 9am to 9pm this creates a constant cross flow under the floor and exhausts out the damp trapped air.
