Understanding Humidity & Condensation
What is Condensation?
Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with cooler surfaces, causing water vapor to turn into liquid. This is often mistaken for leaks, especially on windows, exterior walls, and in bathrooms.
The dew point is the temperature at which air becomes saturated and condensation forms. When surface temperatures fall below the dew point, moisture appears.
Condensation vs. Leaks
While leaks come from water sources like pipes or roof penetrations, condensation forms from moisture in the air. Both can cause water damage, but they require different solutions.
If you're unsure whether you're dealing with condensation or a leak, our professional leak detection services can help identify the true source of moisture.
