		<title>A tiled stove – A guarantee against mould?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tiled stoves are able to prevent the development of mould in your house just because of the radiant heat they produce. Heat rays are comparable with sun rays, both are a kind of long-wave infrared radiation.
Such a heat radiation doesn&#8217;t warm up the air as much as the material and surfaces it hits. As human [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mould – Is there a rule when mould spores turn into mould?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes, at least there is an indirect rule!
Whenever dampness hits and settles on a walls surface it becomes vulnerable for mould growth. Of course mould won&#8217;t grow from humidity and heat in your kitchen after you cooked a hot meal! But if this case is quiet frequent and the dampness has no chance to dry [...]]]></description>

		<title>Order of the day: Don&#8217;t insulate, but do dehumidify!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here in Germany there are approx. 20 million houses and 75% are older than 25 years. According to the experience of ECODRY Systeme GmbH we know that around two thirds of houses which are older than 25 years are having trouble with dampness. So all in all there are 10 million houses suffering from problems [...]]]></description>

		<title>Damp walls may have serious consequences</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Damp walls cause a chain reaction: No matter if dampness was caused by condensation, cold mason work, heat leaks or bad ventilation. Dampness which has settled on the walls surface has always been a solid breeding ground for mould and other kinds of bacteria.
But damp walls can cause damp mason work as well! Moisture which [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Built in 14th century: Kasteel Well in the Netherlands
Our partner BEDI Vochttechniek from the Netherlands is justly proud that they have received the order to dehumidify the castle Kasteel Well. This building is used as college for students from all over the world. Dining hall, staff rooms and canteen are suffering from substantial dampness.
Our partner, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Every mason work has a certain insulation feature</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The insulation value of construction material which was used to built your house was once determined by the Material Testing Office. It was determined by a certain temperature and humidity. It has been taken to account that every construction material includes natural dampness (equilibrium humidity). This dampness is needed for the materials main function, features [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is paint able to storage energy?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The insulation value of your wall depends on its moisture level. A walls material has the highest insulation value if the wall is dry.
But becomes the wall damp and its dampness reaches a level above equilibrium humidity it loses its moisture level and starts to waste energy.
An appropriate coat of paint can help: Paint which [...]]]></description>

		<title>Walls need to breathe!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Plaster and paint are a kind of skin to our four walls. They are using the same function like skin called balancing function. If a wall or plaster surface is able to absorb dampness-apexes which we produce daily it lowers the risk for condensation water and even mould or mould spores.
Plaster and paints used to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Damp mason work and damp walls are two different things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The term “damp walls” relates to surface dampness of walls (condensation or hygroscopic moisture). Causes for damp walls are usually heat bridges, cooling below dew point or temporary high humidity after taking a hot shower in the bath for example.
To fight damp walls other steps have to be taken than to fight damp mason work.

		<title>Take samples of mould yourself</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s no problem in taking samples of mould yourself. Analyzing and assessing the samples is a separate matter.
But let&#8217;s take a look at how to take samples of mould first:
Mould is known to have three different developmental stages:
1.) Mobile, invisible spores, which spread through the air
2.) Visible mould on walls or items
3.) Mycelia, consists of [...]]]></description>
