Does moisture affect an installation?

Moisture Free Foam Insulation

When insulating, you must take into account the amount of moisture i the home when choosing a type of foam insulation. The amount of moisture can affect foam insulation by trapping moisture within the moisture. This moisture can condense on windows or be trapped within walls. If the moisture is trapped between the foam insulation and the wood parts of the wall, this can promote the growth of mold and mildew. Therefore, in order to prevent mould and mildew build up, the moisture must be removed from the home, before the foam can be installed. It is recommended making an appointment with a professional to rectify this.
