Basement Mold and Active Dampness Control

We’ve mentioned Active Dampness Control in a couple of our previous blog posts but we haven’t really expanded on what this term means. This post is going to change that! Read on to find out what we mean when we refer to an Active Dampness Control System, and why you can benefit from having one in your home.

Active Dampness Control is a system that is exclusive to HomeAire – developed by HomeAire professionals and only available for installation by HomeAire professionals. This system was created to safely and effectively eliminate moisture from the home. The moisture and gas that the Active Dampness Control System removes could be excess humidity from living in a temperate climate, dangerous radon gas from beneath your home’s foundation, or the heat building up from beneath your home that can cause condensation and moisture to form.

The system works from the ground up, eliminating hazardous soil gases and moisture before they have a chance to enter your home.

The active dampness control system reroutes the air and expels it above your roof, safely eliminating any risk of radon or mold-causing moisture from infiltrating your indoor air, and keeping you safe and healthy in the process. An Active Dampness Control system is so effective, it can exhaust up to a half gallon of moisture per hour. 

You may recall in one of our previous posts that we mentioned that moisture above a 55% level is a perfect recipe for mold in your home. Particularly in areas like damp basements, bathrooms, or laundry rooms, moisture can be very concentrated and requires adequate ventilation and elimination methods to prevent mold and mildew from forming. The Active Dampness Control System helps to reduce the chances of developing mold, mildew, water damage, or other moisture-induced problems that can be quite common in the home.
