This seminar offers a detailed insight into the causes and effects of condensation and the wide range of modern-day treatments available. The benefits and drawbacks of each treatment method in relation to the severity of individual condensation cases are discussed. By the end of the presentation you should have practical knowledge to go out and solve condensation and mould problems and a greater understanding of:- Water, air and materials- Estimating and measuring condensation risk- The consequences of condensation and mould on health- The signs of condensation and the associated mould growth- How to survey and isolate the sources of moisture within a property- How to develop an appropriate plan for the building occupants to limit moisture production through lifestyle changes- Appropriate methods and materials to change the environment to limit the occurrence of condensation.- Appropriate materials and products to remove existing mould and maintain the new environmentThis CPD can be delivered to you live and remotely.

This seminar provides a thorough overview of the types of dampness found in existing properties with a particular emphasis on the three most common forms of dampness (condensation, rain penetration and rising damp), which can all lead to mould and health issues for occupants. The seminar looks at methods of diagnosis, causes, and a wide variety of treatments for these forms of dampness. By the end of this CPD delegates ought to:1. Understand what dampness is and why it is a problem.2. Know how to diagnose and identify the type dampness.3. Understand the main causes for dampness.
