Wet air contributes to the appearance of a resistant odor, which impresses walls and interior items. Permanent dampness has a negative impact on the well-being of residents. Therefore, it is important to find its source as quickly as possible and take measures to eliminate it.
Search for roots
Without eliminating the focus of dampness with the smell, it is useless to fight, because it will appear again and again. Consider the most common reasons:
- Flooding. To solve the problem, you will have to eliminate leakage (or water from the outside), which can pour into decent investment. In some cases, moisture is deeply absorbed into the finish, so it is necessary to overhaul. If dampness comes from the basement, make waterproofing its ceiling. Thus, the wet air will not penetrate the room.
- Bad ventilation. When in the room ceases to circulate the air, dampness appears. Check the performance of the exhaust. If it does not work or is minimal, contact the communal service.
- Bad thermal insulation of external walls. This problem makes itself felt predominantly in the spring and autumn when the air is saturated with moisture. At this time, the walls can be soaked in dampness. The problem can be solved by the insulation of the walls of the house from the outside.
- The occurrence of cracks. Survey all the joints between the walls, floors and the ceiling. In case of detection of cracks, treat it by mounting foam.
Elimination of dampness in the closet
Wet air in the cabinet may appear due to dampness in the house or due to wet things located there. Switch all things, carefully dry and ventilate them. For drying heavy clothing requires a longer time. The cabinet is recommended to rinse with soap solution or manganese, and then also dry out in the fresh air.
Elimination of damp in the bathroom
The bath is regularly filled with moisture and ferry, but dampness and mold there should not appear. Clean the tile and treat it (especially the seams) impregnation, designed to combat fungi and water rejection. Make sure that the air is well circulating in the bathroom. If dampness appears due to wet towels, dry them in the fresh air or install an electric heated towel rail.
Supplements
When the main reason for damp will be eliminated, apply the following measures:
- Carrying. Well ventilate each room in the house. Do not forget to carry out this procedure daily. In winter, it is recommended to open windows at least 15-20 minutes. In this case, the appearance of a specific aroma is definitely not threatened.
- Absorption of moisture. So that the moisture evaporated as quickly as possible from the room, use a special mixture. Take 20 tablets of activated carbon and mix them with 100 g of salts. These components absorb moisture well. Vases with a mixture in secluded corners. Change the composition every week.
- Ozonator. If you can use the ozonizer. This device refreshes and disinfects air. Ozone quickly eliminates all unpleasant odors. The tool is safe for allergies.
- Oil burner. This method will put a new fragrance. So that it does not turn too apparent, dilute the oil with water. For refreshment of the room, the aroma of orange, cedar or eucalyptus is best suited. Alternatively, air fresheners can be used, but they may not be allergic.
- Other flavors. Some hostesses love to use dried lemon peel to eliminate odors. A coffee disguise has coffee. At the final stages of struggle, we arrange a vase with lemon peel and coffee beans.
Hardware will allow to get rid of dampness forever. After eliminating her reason, do not forget to disinfive the hearth. If you can not independently find or eliminate the cause, contact an organization providing housing and communal services.
