Although condensation is not necessarily the owner`s direct responsibility, it is probably in their best interest to advise or support a tenant to address any problems. Condensation is not a problem in itself, but the black form that can result from excessive condensation is. This black form, called Stachybotrys chartarum, is caused by excessive condensation. It is toxic and can cause undue problems for tenants. Lifestyle is the main cause of moisture associated with condensation and mould in rental housing. A landlord should ask tenants to manage condensation in the rental property by dislodging cabinets and furniture from walls to allow maximum air circulation and prevent condensation and mould formation in poorly ventilated areas of the cabin. Condensation conditions and the resulting mould growth problems also depend more on the temperature and humidity of the air outside the building. It is therefore not uncommon for a home to be affected by condensation or mould growth only at certain times of the year. In such cases, it would be unlikely that a breakdown alone would be sufficient to reduce or eliminate the problem. In recent decades, rental properties, particularly older real estate, have seen an increase in the growth of black mold. Ironically, the cause of this increase is often to go to the improvement and rehabilitation of older properties. Their improved insulation, the installation of UPVC double-glazed windows, better train exclusion and more wall insulation will make them more airtight.

Reduced draught resulted in insufficient airflow through the properties, resulting in an increased prevalence of condensation problems. If your home has condensate, you can push a blackened shape on the inside of the exterior walls, in the corners of the rooms, on the window frames and behind cabinets and other furniture. Suggestions on this page can help prevent condensation, especially if the landlord has tenants who refuse to open windows during the winter months. Tenants, if you follow these steps, then your condensation will be kept in check and the condition of your home will probably remain the same throughout your rent. If you do not, your landlord may accuse you of not following these steps and recover the costs of repairing the property in the state it was in at the beginning of the lease.
