FREEZING OF WALLS
If the insulation of the
room is broken, then at sub-zero temperatures for a period of time there is a "freezing of the
walls".
Cold walls are not just a lack of comfort during the winter season. Freezing the dew
point (the temperature at which, at a certain humidity, water turns from vapor to liquid) shifts
inside the room.
Water condenses on cold walls, especially around panel joints and corner joints, from
the warm air of the apartment. Wallpaper and plaster become excessively wet and over time begin to
bubble and fall off. But the most dangerous thing in this situation is the growth of mold and
mildew.
MOLD AND
MILDEW
Microorganisms begin to multiply on the surfaces of damp and poorly ventilated
rooms.
For a long time fungus and mold is not visible - it develops under the wallpaper and in
the joints between panels. When they are detected, it is already too late.
In the apartment there
is a specific musty smell - the result of vital activity of microorganisms, wallpaper turns black
and begins to fall off.
A large number of microorganisms and spores in the air negatively affect human
health.
It is recommended not to lead the apartment to such a state, but to perform timely
airtight sealing and insulation of the apartment.
All joints between panels
are opened, the old insulation is removed. After that, all the cavities are treated with
antiseptic.
Then the insulation is inserted into the joints, and a layer of sealant is placed on top. In the
apartment, the wallpaper is removed, the walls are cleaned of mold and mildew, and then also
protected with antiseptic. About us. stroitelstvo24.kiev.ua
