High airtight houses and mold

In recent years, the damage caused by mold in homes has been increasing. One of the reasons for this is the higher airtightness of houses. With high airtightness and high insulation, the environment becomes more humid, which accelerates mold contamination. Mold can develop from condensation on windows and walls, dust, and any available nutrients. Among these, condensation can be considered a closely related environmental condition for mold growth. Condensation occurs when water vapor in the air is cooled. To suppress condensation and prevent mold growth, it is effective to ventilate frequently to ensure that humidity does not accumulate indoors.
