Condensation occurs when moisture-laden warm air strikes a cold, dry surface, such as a basement wall or window. A similar thing happens with cold water passing through copper pipes. Fortunately, minor condensation issues can be reduced substantially with a few inexpensive precautions. Difficulty: Easy.
So, quite simply, condensation is caused when moisture-laden air comes into contact with a cold surface âthe air is cooled to a point where it can no longer hold its burden of water vapour. At this point, (DEWPOINT), water begins to drop out of the air, and it is seen as condensation on surfaces. On impervious surfaces such as glass and paint, beads or a film of water collect, but on permeable surfaces such as wallpapered and porous plaster the condensing water is absorbed into the material.
