Avoidance of mould mushroom

With customary heaters the air of then room is warmer than the walls. This warm air contains steam (relative air humidity: The warmer the air, the more steam she can take up to the saturation.). The warmed up circulating air of the room glides along the walls, it cools down and a part of the steam condenses on the colder walls to water. The walls become humid.

On especially cold surfaces, e.g. poor dammed up outer walls, a stronger condensation with increased moisture penetration takes place. There the mould mushroom originates first.

Now strong ventilating should help. Of course a humid place dries a bit if the air whistles through the room. But the walls thereby cool down. After that one warms up the air of the room again, to have it nicely warm. The warm air increasingly takes up steam which condenses on the colder walls.

 

There is a better way:
Because the infrared radiation heat warms up the walls more than the air of the room, it cannot cool down on the walls. Consequently no steam condenses! In addition, the Infrared radiation heat provides that the wall can deliver even humidity to the air and dries besides.

 

The results are exclusively positive:

No mould forms on the dry wall!
The dry wall dams up the heat better than a humid one!
The dry wall lowers the energy costs!


Warm walls are better
than hot air
