4 Easy Ways to Eliminate Moisture in Your Home

4 Easy Ways to Eliminate Moisture in Your Home

Many sources of moisture that contribute to mold are often preventable and easily eliminated with simple fixes.

Mold is caused by various sources of moisture and humidity in your home and can rapidly spread through the air as it grows. However, many sources of moisture that contribute to mold are often preventable and easily eliminated with simple fixes. If you have recently discovered mold or other signs of moisture in your home, consider these four easy ways to eliminate moisture in your home to prevent further mold growth in the future.

Stop Any Leaks Before They Progress

One common cause of mold is a leak in the home that sometimes goes unnoticed for a prolonged period of time. In these circumstances, it is best to eliminate all leaks before they progress into advanced water damage, if possible. If you notice even a small leak in your home, it is best to call the professionals to address it immediately.

Use Exhaust Fans in Your Bathrooms

While they are often overlooked, bathroom fans are a crucial tool for preventing mold in your home. If regularly used during shower use, bathroom fans can keep your bathroom walls dry and free of mold, as the shower is a common culprit for mold growth in the bathroom. Consider adding bathroom fans to your bathrooms, or if you have them, be sure to use them in order to eliminate moisture that could damage your home.

Add Dehumidifiers to Your Rooms

Dehumidifiers are excellent tools for eliminating excess moisture from the air in your home. Particularly in rooms that are humid and warm, dehumidifiers are especially important for keeping these rooms dry. In addition to keeping the air in your home free of moisture, dehumidifiers can also have benefits to your health, making the air in your home easier to breathe over time.

Check Carpets and Wash Area Rugs Regularly

Because they are so absorbent, carpets and rugs in your home can, unfortunately, be the culprits of mold upon any sign of moisture. The best way to prevent mold in your rugs is to wash them regularly, while carpets will need to be kept clean and dry over time to prevent mold growth.
