Many people are retrofitting older homes and buildings with insulation to improve thermal comfort and reduce the runtime of their HVAC systems, whether for heating in cold climates or air conditioning in warm climates. However, it's important to consider that insulation can sometimes lead to indoor humidity issues and moisture problems. While insulation helps slow down the flow of energy or heat, it can also reduce the operational time of HVAC systems and diminish the building's ability to dry out. In this video, we discuss the potential negative effects of insulating existing buildings and what steps can be taken to prevent future moisture issues.
