Moisture Control
Properly controlling moisture in your home will improve the
effectiveness of your air sealing and insulation efforts, and vice
versa. Thus, moisture control contributes to a home's overall energy
efficiency.
The best strategy for controlling moisture in your home depends on your
climate and how your home is constructed. Before deciding on a moisture
control strategy for your home, you may first want to understand how
moisture moves through a home.
Moisture control strategies typically include the following areas of a home:
* Attics
* Foundation
o Basement
o Crawl space
o Slab-on-grade floors
* Walls.
In most U.S. climates, you can use vapor diffusion retarders in these areas of your home to control moisture.
Proper ventilation should also be part of a moisture control strategy.
