What is the main cause of condensation inside your home?
Condensation inside of your home is caused by excess humidity (water vapors) in your home. Many times these humidity issues arise in the kitchen & bathroom areas of the house.
Another cause for excess humidity in your home can be outside air that enters the home thru older and/or drafty windows and doors. This not only allows moisture into the house but can lead to a drafty and uncomfortable indoor environment.
