Moisture condensation is a major problem for homeowners and can cause a leaky roof. It happens when air that is warmer than the roof cools and the moisture in the air condenses on the cooler surface. This can cause problems with water damage, mold, and other issues. The solution to this problem is to prevent moisture from coming into contact with the roof at all. There are many ways homeowners can do this, such as installing a ventilation system that circulates air through the attic. Another option is to install a rain chain and drains in your kitchen sink or bathtub to use the water for your garden.

The most common type of moisture condensation stains is discoloration that looks like rust on shingles or tiles, brown spots on walls and ceilings, or black spots on exterior brick or stone.

What are moisture condensation stains?

Moisture condensation stains are caused by the formation of water vapor in a building. These stains can be seen in areas where there is high humidity or outside air leaks into the building. They also occur near windows and other openings that allow outside air to come inside and contact surfaces with high levels of moisture from inside.

Does your attic have proper ventilation?

Vent fans are relatively inexpensive, so it is worth investing in one if you want to ensure that your home remains healthy and mold-free.
