Controlling Moisture Within Buildings

When occupying a building, humans are constantly releasing moisture into the air. Moisture, needs to find a way to successfully leave the home and avoid condensation on structures. In this episode we speak with Jesse Clarke, Building Science Manager from Proclima Australia about:

  • How the seasons, time of day and geography change the directional flow of moisture

  • How membranes can assist in controlling moisture flow

  • How to achieve passivhaus and airtightness within buildings

It is a highly important but underappreciated topic. We get a little technical for a bit in the middle, but I recommend you stick through.
