| Wall drainage / Dehumidification of walls | ||
| Only dry walls guarantee a healthy living! | ||
| Wall drainage and dehumidification of walls are both preventative measures against damp walls. But both practices come from different approaches! | ||
| Wall drainage | Dehumidification of walls | |
| Stops rising damp from the ouside or below into the masonwork by renewing the horizontal damp-proof course or vertical insulating.
There are three alternatives: 1. Renewal of the outside insulation by digging up, drainage and sealing it. 2. Renewal of the horizontal damp-proof course by using chemical injection (hot, cold, with pressure, without pressure) 3. Renewal of the horizontal damp-proof course by using the mechanical method with chromium alloyed steel, wall saw, exchanging the wall, drill core method, etc. |
Remove of dampness and protection from moisture penetration.
There are five alternatives: 1. Microwave drying 2. Using infrared panels 3. Electro osmosis 4. Electrophysical method 5. Electro cybernetic method of ECODRY (based on IRS Impulse Resonance Technology) |

| An external insulation doesn't protect against capillary rising damp. A horizontal damp-proof course would help, if it was really blocking the rising damp, but sadly this won't work in most cases. | Infrared panels and microwave systems don't work well against capillary rising damp. Electroosmosis is only successful to a limited degree, electrophysical systems are recommended. The ECODRY electro cybernetic system fights capillary rising damp verifiable suitable! | |
| The main problems of barrier system: - None of these systems dehumidifies walls in an active way. Masonwork has to dry in a natural way. - This process takes a long time (e.g. a natural stone wall of 75 cm thickness takes more than 15 years to dry in a natural way). - Often the barrier won't work. More than two thirds of them fail. - Harmful agents of injections put the statics on great risk. |
But also electrical systems can cause problems: - The system doesn't help (and was sold as a "magic box" that solves every problem) - Even the manufacturer doesn't know about the right technology - A consultant sells a helping device but offers no support |
|
| Attention! Mistakes can't be repaired! (an injection can't be removed!) |
but! Systems are reversible and can be removed without any problems. This is especially important for monument conservators! | |
