| Capillary rising damp |
|
|
| grows slowly but strongly! | ||
| - | capillary rising damp spreads through the foundation and defect horizontal barrier into masonwork. This process takes years, decades or even centuries. | |
| - | Every soil contents moisture and every masonwork is able to transport this moisture capillary. Wall humidity is a great problem but spreading salts and saltpeter are much more critical. | |
| - | Every soil and building material is connected to any kind of salt. It will be solved and transported to the walls surface by water. Now the water will evaporate and what remains is salt also known as saltpeter. | |
| - | Dehumidification of walls stops the capillary rising damp as well as the transportation of salts. Every building material has its own capillary structure and so its own specific features to provide capillary rising damp like coarse-pored tuff or fine-pored burnt bricks of historical monuments. |
|
| - | It's possible to stop capillary rising damp by using an artificial horizontal barrier.Sadly this solution has worked in only a few cases and is supposed to cause further damages to the static and health of the occupier. | |
| But there are other efficient, gentle and long lasting ways to help. | ||
