Maintaining your new home
Today’s advanced building products have eliminated much of the time-consuming and often tedious work involved in home maintenance and although your new home contains many of these leading-edge materials, no home is maintenance-free.
What causes moisture damage?
Your home can be damaged when weather-related water is allowed to enter and remain in the structure. Water from leaking pipes or fixtures that is not immediately cleaned up, and indoor humidity levels that are not properly controlled, can leave serious consequences.
How can I control moisture?
Bathroom fans and kitchen range hoods are specifically installed in your home to help you control moisture and contaminants. Regular use of your home ventilation system will exhaust excess airborne moisture caused by bathing, showering, doing laundry and cooking.
