overview
If the air is at a relative humidity of 40%, then the dew-point
temperature is only 43°F. The walls and ceilings would therefore have
to be significantly colder for the air to reach its dew-point and for water
droplets to form.
How to achieve the correct temperature and air humidity:
Tips for active heating and ventilation:
● Check the dew-point! Surfaces of walls should not fall below a
temperature of 59°F.
● Avoid shutting off the heat completely when leaving the house for
extended periods of time.
● Ventilate in all weather conditions, even if it’s raining.
● Open the windows for a short time to air the room. A partially
opened window does not have the desired effect, wastes heating
energy and can even promote the formation of mold.
● If the room air is too dry, particularly in the winter, then electrical
air humidifiers are recommended, since airing at low temperatures
will tend to decrease the humidity further.
● When airing a room, a few minutes should be sufficient. Check
the value indicated on your Mold Alert thermo-hygrometer.
1. Select °F/°C and place the audio alarm switch on the back of the
