Hi,

Some of the walls in my flat are extremely cold, yet there's no visable condensation on my windows. I know it can take less humidity to grow mould than to than to cause condensation...Which has me worried..

I air the flat out often but I've read about how just having the heating on + cold air can create humidity, which obviously would be drawn to any cold walls I have in house, creating conditions conducive to mould.

I have sovled other problem areas (kitchen/bathroom) by fitting in fans, and airing out rooms. But it would seem cold walls can be a whole other problem all together.

Any solutions to get around this?

Thanks.
