The basement is not exposed to sunlight, it is always cooler than the ground, and the wall and ground will form a bridge with the soil to transfer heat, and the temperature will be lower. When the moisture content in the air is sufficient, the temperature will be lower When an object, it will condense and gather on the surface of the object to form water droplets, which is what we usually call condensed water. Especially in the rainy season in spring and summer, the condensed water adheres to the wall evenly like sweat. If you do not deal with it in time, living in this environment for a long time may reduce your immunity.
Why is it easier to form condensate in the basement
The formation of condensed water must meet two conditions: first, the moisture content in the air must be high, and second, there must be a temperature difference, when outdoor When the moisture-rich air enters a low-temperature room, it is easy to condense and form condensed water. Therefore, if the windows can be opened for ventilation, so that the indoor and outdoor temperatures are not much different, the formation of condensed water can also be avoided. But the basement generally has no windows, so there is no way to ventilate. Therefore, it is easier to form condensed water.
How to solve the problem of condensate in the basement
1. The rough room can be insulated in the pre-renovation stage by laying EPS foam insulation boards on the walls and floors, or painting a layer Decorate after the thermal insulation mortar, this method is the best effect and the most trouble-free, but the premise is to make preparations before the decoration, if it has been decorated, it will be difficult to implement it.
2. Hang a closet desiccant on the wall. The amount of desiccant can be appropriately increased or decreased according to the severity of the condensed water, but this desiccant cannot be reused.If the condensate is severe, the effect will not be very good and the cost will be a bit high.
3. Use the dehumidification or heating function of the air conditioner, and the air conditioner generally has the function of dehumidification. When the condensation in the lower room is not very serious, the dehumidification function of the air conditioner is more effective Yes, if the condensate is serious, the heating mode can be turned on to better remove the condensed water. The disadvantage of using the air conditioner is that it consumes a bit of electricity. If the dehumidification function is used, it will reduce the indoor temperature, which is more suitable for use in summer.
4. Using a mobile dehumidifier, the working method of the dehumidifier is to cool the water molecules in the air into ice, and directly circulate and cool the air in the room. The effect of removing the moisture is very good. Since the temperature of each location in the basement is different, the condensate situation is also different. We can also place the mobile dehumidifier in a place with serious condensate to achieve precise dehumidification. The current dehumidifier also has a heating function, and can automatically switch the operating mode of the system according to the indoor air humidity, and intelligent dehumidification is very convenient.
5. Raise the room temperature. As the indoor temperature is high, the wall temperature will also increase, and the water molecules will not condense easily. The usual way is to turn on the electric oven to change the room. When the temperature rises, the condensed water situation will be relieved, the room will not be wet, and the feeling will be more refreshing and comfortable.
For friends who live in the basement and other places with serious humidity, using a dehumidifier to remove condensate is the best choice, and its dehumidification effect is the most effective.It is also the easiest to use. Air with the right humidity is more beneficial to health.
