| hi, I'm going back to my house in TRNC in March. Every time I go I seem to spend hours scrubbing mould off of the walls and trying to get rid of the smell of damp. Is there a solution to this? Is it because te house is left empty most of the year? Does anyone else have the same problem? Any idea welcome please. |

| Lucienne, The main culprit is ventilation lack of it causes condensation which causes mould...... Air the property at regular intervals then you will have no problem |

| Hi Lucienne,Blackpool fan is right.Now I live here after having as holiday home I can see the problems.A few days of windows open makes all the difference,and some warm weather.Have you neighbours?If Lapta area,I will help |

| Its called Salt Efflorecense, its caused by salt in the sand, and it comes out of the concrete, under tiles etc, its like a white fur. I know this will sound disgusting, but if you wipe your finger in it and taste it, it will taste of salt. This then causes damp which then turns to mould. You can treat it, with specialist chemicals. Not an easy job to rectify, there are damp proof companies around. It is mainly caused because of poor damp coursing. A lot of people call it the Cyprus rust! |

| there is no damp coursing that is the problem or membrain you will always hav this as concrete will absorb moistour from the ground some times you can treat this with a sealent called fix witch you can get from marsalls this is also used as a stabaliser cant promise this will cure all but you can give it a go |

| Buy a Dehumidifier. I bought mine in the UK for under £100 and checked it as luggage on CTA. It will ease the symptoms but not cure the cause but sure is a useful bit of kit. |

| If damp is black brown or orange its caused by condensation we leave the bathroom window open on the security latch and leave bowls of salt in all rooms leave wadrobe and kitchen doors open. We also got it in our caravan if left un-opened over winter. Maxwell from edrimit |

| Lucienne Our house is empty all winter but never has damp or mould (except for a little in one corner due to getting soaked during construction), so I would suggest lack of damp course is the root problem. Try leaving curtains open and allow some ventillation if possible. Maxwell r.e damp in caravan Do you shut the curtains in winter, if you do, this will be a large part of your problem. Leaving the curtains open allows sunlight to enter the van, and its warming effect will help circulate the air, keeping the place fresh (for those who don't know, caravans have lots of built in air vents.)

| Is Cyprus an earthquake zone,if it is there should not be a damp proof course as it makes the building dangerous.Here in Crete we get the same problems,we are an earthquake zone,had one last week,so no damp proof courses here. |

| You could always have some attractive metal work put on your windows so that you can leave them open a little to air your property but not run the risk of being broken into. We have done this on my mothers apartment and it has made all the difference, no mould to date! |

| Suggest putting vents in each room, or leaving containers of salt in each room. Unless builder states in specification, there will be no damp course in your property, as in Turkey/Cyprus or other such countries in the earthquate zone do not put damp courses as such. |

| No damp proof course is the problem, you cant put damp proof in when you got steel rods running through concrete, some villas do have a damp proof paint type around the property but most of damp will come from the corners of building where the steels go right down below ground level allowing the damp to rise. |

| Thanks all for your help, I don't think that it is to do with the damp course, i think it is to do with the humidity and you are probably right, about ventilation. We have no windows which we can leave open and no vents. |

| damp is wet walls caused from the ground, capillary and only rises to about a meter in height,mould is caused by poor ventilation ,you can have trickle vents fitted in your windows and you can easily fit them yourselves at a low cost around 15 quid a window,they work well. musin |

| For those of you who live here, your aircon Arselik or other should have a de-humidify setting. This has been very effective with our damp and condensation issues. It is VERY economical to run. On the Arselik units it is the teardrop function I think but refer to the manual. We leave on for 24hrs. We had some mattresses that felt damp and these were completely dry after one session. Obviously this is no help to the owner who does not live here but she could turn on this function when she gets here for a couple of days. |

| I knocked through walls in several rooms and put in vents last year and this seems to have done the trick. What I also did was put a piece of thin net behind the vent to stop any little visitors getting in.(TOUCH WOOD) I am back over in March and, hopefully, wont find my house infested. |

| Rising and pemertrating damp are certainly problems but mould and a general damp feeling to a property are usually a function of heat and ventilation. Tirckle vents do work but as windows seldom have a wooden surround it means cutting a slot either in aluminimum or PVC frames which often have a metal insert, not so easy. At Cyprus Solutions we have a massive diamond core drill and cut a hole through any wall and fit a vent cover either side one having a closing slider. The vents have an integral insect screen. Most of the damp proof products are covering up the problem not curing it . De humidifiers are very good and we have a some commercial versions which inlude a small heater so the air output is warmed, warm air will absorb the damp from your wall faster. We do hire these out when we have some spare. See Cyprus today next week as I will mention more in the Mr Fixit column. Gas fire are a huge source of damp as is cooking so vented cooker hoods are very worthwhile. Regards Nick |

| de humidifiers are good as we have one in our home in the u.k,but they won't cure the problem of rising damp,which is not condensation as they are two, different things,as has been said before, rising damp is a construction problem when moisture is drawn up from the ground into the walls,this shows up as staining or mould at or around ground level.this sometime's looks like a tide mark on the plaster or wallpaper.in the uk you can have your wall's, injected with a damp-proofer,which works well with a brick construction but not sure if it will work on your concrete,structures.make sure there is no earth piled up against the walls,as this can help the moisture penetrate the walls. |

| continued,condensation is another thing.the best way get rid of condensation is to provide a free flow of air into the room, or rooms affected either by opening windows or by fitting x tractor fans into the walls,these should be of the automatic type,that switch themselfs on when moisture above a pre-set level is detected by the x tractor fan,this will then run on untill the moisture level in the room drops to the pre set level that you have selected on the fan. room's most affected are bathrooms,showerooms and kitchens.if you have condensation, behind kitchen base units you can also get small air vents, fitted to the kick plates on the bottom of the base units to allow an air circulation behind the units. if you want x tractor fan's fitted you will have to have 4"--6" holes drilled through the walls at high level,and then wired into the circuit.these measures should cure the condensation problem. |

| sounds like big building work. 4" - 6" holes... fans monted into windows and/or window frames... the expensive fans with moisture presets.... dehumidifiers.... the electric connection and nice cabelling and the electricity to run them.... or injections... the devaluation of thousands of propertys.... serious health problems might occur (mould is usually highly toxic) and all this because the builders dont care about the damp course and a proper ventilation. and the architects not either. unbelievable. but when a lot of people only look out for a bargain, believe in estate agents, spend the money for marble floors and call that "luxury" and not investing into a good construction then they have to pay later for it, fe now. |

| cont. my advice, lucienne, dig. dig a 1,2 meter ditch around your house in march, leave it dry till juli, put a damp course to the outside and a drainage pipe. install one or two DC fans with dust filters runned by solar energy which makes sure that they only work when there is sun and dry air available. open inside doors that way that a circulation in the house is achieved and give it a exhaust hole at the opposite side. dont open the windows, leave the sink cabinet doors open. and hope. (in old times they very often did the damp course with clay as a barrier layer) |

| I think I have found an answer! I found a company who manufacture solar powered vents/de-humidifiers and tracked down a dealer in Cyprus(South). I have had a unit delivered to my house and it is propped up against the wall awaiting installation. I wired it up and when switched on a constant stream of warm air is forced out of the vent at the back. I think it will solve the mould problem and I hope provide some background heat in the cooler months when I move in permanently. It looks like it will work all day long in the sunshine, even when I am not there, at no cost. I am thinking of having the supplementary cooling fan fitted as well. I will report back when the unit is installed but it looks like it will work. The web site is http://www.Solaair.com and the man to contact is Dennis |

| msg 37, That sounds like a good idea, as long as it vents the warm, moist air to the outside world. If not, then as soon as the sun goes down & the house cools down, the moisture will drop back out of the air and condense into wet patches on the walls again. Sorry for the non-technical language, but I think you get the idea! Keith. |

| Keith, The unit forces warm DRY air into the house and forces the humid air in the house out through natural gaps around and under doors and windows etc. |

| BTW: We have already installed Solar hot air collector in an Lapta Village Houe. No need to go to the south. If its renewable energy, we got it!! If you are interested please dont hesitate to contact us via http://www.cyprussunenergy.com Hatty, "Forces air out through natural gaps.." Dont want to know what enters the house through this natural gaps .. These hot air collectors can supply 100 % of heating during the daytime. A very good solution for offices an daytime permises.. Think about it.. Can be combined also with an airventilation heat recovery system to heat up the whole house etc.. Go green and benefit! Regards Henrik |

| a solar air-thermal is a good solution to reduce heating costs and humidity. we just installed a system in Lapta. these systems can be made locally as well and are "the oncomimg future" for back up heating, drying and other purposes. for more info http://www.kibsolar.com and http://www.grammer-solar.com/en/index.htm we are accredited partners what keith said is right. in homes there should be no "natural circulation", it should be a "controlled ventilation" to avoid heat losses. as much you have to "force" air to the outside as lower the intake is (pressure losses), so its better to install an outlet or a heat recovery system, see website. lucienne could try with controlled ventilation as I suggested and if there is a solar air-thermal involved...even better. the damp is another problem... hatty, the cooling section of "sola-air" will not work...why not? contact me. |

| Hatty, I see, - I didn't realise that it had an air intake from outside. Obviously if it takes air from outside, de-humidifies it, and uses it to displace the moist air inside, it will do a great job! I don't suppose that you know if there's a website or anything? - failing that, Make and model number would be most welcome. Regards, Keith. |

| Hi Hatty, I'm extremely interested in this, it sounds as if it is what I might need. I'm getting a bit confused now, with all of the suggestions. I've looked at the Solaair website. Just out of interest, did you view this before you bought it? If so did you see it in Cyprus or were you able to view it in England? We always seem to have so much to fit in the short while we are in Cyprus, Lucienne |

| Lucienne I had a man from solaair come to my house in Engalnd and demonstrate it. He set it up and almost instantly warm air came out of the vent on the back of the unit. He arranged delivery and I am just waiting for him to get the installation done. I am hoping the unit will not only cure the humidity but provide background heating in the winter and therefore reduce my heating cost (not heating house from "cold"), and, with the additional fan on the cool side of the house reduce the air con use. As I see it, it will work all day for no cost even when I am away. It sounds an ideal solution to mould with some added benefits but I will let you know how I get on overthe coming months. Hatty |

| Hatty, Really?, must have something to do that it is good german stuff with more output than the sola-air equipment. anyway, the technology for cyprus can be adapted and "local made" is possible to reduced costs. the output temp at 15 o clock in Lapta is 42 degree C. just to remind you all that the import of products from the south side is only possible for an additional 30% VAT. |

| Hi Biglugs. Regarding rising damp problems. How do we install a DPC in our second floor appartment we do not see a lot of rain for 10 months of the year perhaps our damp is due to a leeking swiming pool or it might just be condensation. Just had another thought after 10 bottles of effes I have noticed a rising damp on toilet wall should have gone to spec savers. |

| update: the outlet temp of our system monted in Lapta reached today, in cloudy and rainy conditions, 30 degrees. the SolarVenti SV7 from solaair, good for 40 m² rooms, does cost 650 euro, excluding roc VAT, an additional 30% tax in the trnc, without monting. the SV14 for 70m² is available for 865 euro (size 200cmx71cm, 20 kilo) and the SV 30 for 1370 euro, plus tax,tax maybe you consider a system from us. ppersonn@gmx.net |

| no, iam not a solaair dealer. lucienne, i didnt see you house, the directions, roof space, the walls, the general conditions, where to connect them....as a DC or AC type... fe, a single unit, 4 sqm big, would create a " desert-like wind storm" fe in your sleeping room and even might overheat it. yes, there is a "sort of warranty" lets meet at your house and then we will see what the best solution will be for you. three years ago i wanted to buy something in the RoC and i did ask for warranty....yes, of course, but.... no work permits for service staff = no insurance, no insurance for the service car, illegal in general from the point of the RoC and from the TRNCs point as well... |

| Hi Lucienne. At sola-air we can supply you with solarventi units shipped direct from the manufacturer. For the area of property you are talking about you would probably need either two SV14 units or one SV30 but we would req a site survey.Dont forget you can also connect our units to a cooling system and whilst it wont cool your house fully it will reduce the need for air conditioning :- Reducing your electricity bills in the summer as well. |

It just keeps getting better! anyway, Dennis from Bedford, UK, or RoC?, if you're going to talk the talk, you've got to walk the walk: what are the shipping costs? how long does it take? how much import tax lucienne would have to pay? who, lucienne?, is going to import and do all the customs procederes and how much it does cost and when the SV 14 will finally arrive at her home? and who is installing them? and if you are from solaair why you dont offer ME, a respected RE dealer and installer, the TC dealer and partnership? could be a bi-communal solar partnership peter |

| Hi Peter, I am finding it difficult to understand your attitude, Are you afraid of competition? We have experienced engineers in Cyprus who have been fitting these units for years but if you would like to talk about a partnership we would be more than happy to talk to you. At least all this banter is making people aware that these products exist and that can only be a good thing. We could rid the world of damp together ill be the Lone Ranger you can be Tonto. All the best |

| hi Dennis, where you are based? the UK? Cyprus? you live in the TRNC!? if you dont have a work permit in the TRNC, your activities and of all your engineers, even for a site survey, are illegal. that simple it is. you dont understand my attitude? iam angry, Dennis. you openly offer site surveys, direct trade = sales in this forum, and installation of your products. You obviously don’t have a TC partner. BUT IF iam interested, you would consider partnership? And if iam not? you continue? Iam not afraid of competition at all. here in North Cyprus iam the representative of fantastic companies. for this quality range of products i dont have a competitor! iam aware of the different techniques of solar air thermals. lets meet and we will see whether you can convince me of SolaVenti. by the way…pls answer the questions from msg 56 |

| yes, its summer and its hot.... but, the winter is coming...and WE are still here and would like to advice you about solar air heating and ventilation to avoid damp and mould and, if dimensioned a little bigger, also heat your home with warm air heated up from the sun. thats why i bring it up to the TOP |

| Peter, How big a solar panel will I need for a 10m x 5m pool pump? I asked the question on the solar pool pump thread, twice, but you do not seem to want to furnish the details. |
