  • House Mold and Mildew on the Rise in Winter Months

    U.S. Sunlight Corporation raises awareness of mold and mildew risks in houses, especially during the winter months. Millions of people suffer from allergies throughout the winter months due to mold lurking often unseen in their homes.

    Incline Village, NV (PRWEB) December 01, 2011

    Mold growth is attributed to three factors: moisture, warmth and organic material. Unfortunately, in the winter months, these three factors often come together in the home's attic space. As warm air rises into the attic, the warm air meets with the underside of the roof causing condensation. For this reason, it is not suggested to keep an attic warm throughout the winter months as a "heat barrier" to the cold outside. In fact, the condensation created in a warm attic during the winter months drips onto the insulation making it much less effective. Instead, rely on adequate insulation between the attic and living spaces. Additionally, moisture rises into the attic from the home's daily activities such as the dishwasher, showers and cooking. A warm, moist attic and organic materials such as building materials and household items being stored create an environment for mold and mildew to flourish. For these reasons, it is essential to address the attic space of a home in order to ensure a healthy home.

    Solar attic fans are another integration of solar power into our lives. The most original feature of these fans are their easement. The point is that there is a need in those attic fans only when there is a very sunny day and temperatures are measured up to 140°F and profit comes out of here brighter sun shines more electricity produced and more fan is spinning and more fresh air comes inside.

    Most homes have manual roof vents, which allow some air movement, but they can’t keep up with the sun pounding down all day.
