Information We are receiving more and more enquiries as people become aware of the high cost of conventional air conditioning on their pockets and the environment. Moisture Cure offers alternatives to addressing the ongoing problem of how to cool your home, office or warehouse effectively and economically. Sub Floor Ventilation The subfloor of your home is the area under the floor boards. This area can become damp or wet for a variety of reasons:
All of these conditions will allow mould mildew to grow and breed, creating the ideal living conditions for termites, rats and mice and other nasties too horrible to think about. In other words, your subfloor area becomes very unhealthy for you and your home. Solutions The two methods we know and use with great success are an extraction (and or inlet) fan or a ducted extraction fan system. Both systems are straight forward, relatively uncomplicated, inexpensive to run and are long term solutions. Edmonds Eco Fan This is a purpose built, rust and corrosion resistant motorized fan that is installed in the foundations of your home between the earth and the under side of the floor. Principle The principle behind this method is simple. The EcoFan extracts as much as 4000 litres of damp, stale, smelly air per minute and this air is then replaced by clean fresh air sucked in through the existing vents in the brickwork. One Ecofan is usually adequate for a normal family home but in some instances we will recommend two EcoFans. They are designed to work 24 hours per day, but the power cost will be less than $6.00 per year - great value! We also estimate the motors have a life of around 7 years. Ducted Inline Fan Extraction System Unlike the Ecofan this Inline Fan uses ducting to transfer/transport air throughout the subfloor area. The system is then ‘balanced’ by adding baffles, so the airflow can be regulated evenly throughout the entire length of ducting. The damp, stale air is sucked from all points within the subfloor area. Each project is unique so the design will depend on the building structure. Commercial In commercial situations, larger homes or areas where it's impractical to install EcoFans, an Inline Fan Extraction System is recommended.
Moisture Cure can install these units in most areas and they can easily be installed by the average handyman. |

Ventilation in the household
Is used to help remove hot, humid air from roof spaces and stale, damp air from sub-floor spaces. Roof ventilation allows for cooler, fresher air to keep roof space temperatures from reaching extreme levels, thus limiting the heat load on insulation and ceilings. Sub floor ventilation will impair the growth of fungi, mould and even termites, helping to alleviate household allergies, respiratory problems and eliminating those musty smells.
A Dehumidifier
Is a machine that literally sucks in humid, stale and damp air and replaces it with clean, dry and slightly warmer air. Humidity levels can be kept at a safe 65% or below. Whilst controlling the climate in your home or office you can solve all your mould, dampness, mustiness, corrosion and condensation problems. A Dehumidifier is a must for your home all year round. We now have a range of sizes to suit any situation.
