Wilgoć i grzyb w domu. Jak znaleźć przyczynę, zanim wydasz pieniądze?

Steamy windows, damp corners, peeling paint, musty smells, and mold on the walls—dampness in the home often begins innocently, but over time it can become a serious technical, health, and financial problem. In this episode of Strefa Budownictwa, I speak with Dr. Bartłomiej Monczyński, an expert in building mycology who specializes in waterproofing, with a particular focus on the renovation of damp buildings. We discuss where moisture in the home really comes from, how to distinguish condensation from moisture from the ground, and when the problem is ventilation versus thermal bridges or damaged waterproofing. In this episode, we cover: – where does moisture come from in a home? – what's the difference between condensation and capillary action? – why does mold come back after washing or painting? – does a dehumidifier solve the problem? – what's a safe humidity level in a room? – why can mold appear after window replacement or thermal modernization? – what role does ventilation play? – what are thermal bridges? – why there's no good thermal insulation without waterproofing? The most important conclusion from the conversation is simple: when it comes to moisture, it's not enough to deal with the symptoms. You have to find the cause. Otherwise, the problem will keep coming back.
