Bus Living, Truck Living, Boat Living. You name it, if you live in a home that is capable of moving by itself, or have the desire to, then this is the place for you.
Whether it's a small wooden structure like my own, or a large bus conversion, condensation is a problem. I thought it might be a good reference topic for people to add their ideas and experiences to.
In my own case, I didn't even notice the problem last winter. This winter has been long and cold (by UK standards!) and when I realised what was going on, this is what I found:
Any ideas how to treat / prevent the condensation ? The mould wiped off, but I expect it'll be back! Here's the link to my build thread if it helps understand the construction of my home:
eliminate cold bridges between inside & outside. this usually is more common with metal frames.
include continuous vapor barriers on the warm side of the walls & roof (ceiling).
encourage free ventillation on the cold side of the wall or ceiling insulation.
include either active (fan) or passive (opposing windows) ventilation in the living space.
both boiling tea water and sleeping increases moisture in the air. warm air is not only able to support a greater amount of moisture (humidity), but once it does will migrate to any cold surface.
this is where the moisture begins to be noticed as droplets.
