Mould in the cellar
The fight against mould
The dangers of mould in the basement
Why is mould in the basement so dangerous?
Mould in cellars is particularly dangerous as the spores released are harmful to health. These should be dealt with as soon as possible, before the mould can spread all over the cellar walls.
Cellars in particular are prone to increased moisture, which forms a breeding ground for mould. Before you know it, mould infests the building and can cause considerable harm.
01
Health risks
Inhaling mould spores can trigger or worsen allergies, asthma and other respiratory diseases. Black mould in particular is known for its harmful mycotoxins, which can weaken the immune system.
02
Structural damage
Moisture and mould can attack the walls and building fabric, which can lead to cracks, salt deposits, flaking plaster and wall paint as well as long-term structural damage. This jeopardises the stability of the building and causes high repair costs.
03
Poor air quality
Mould in the cellar significantly worsens the air quality and causes unpleasant odours that negatively impact your well-being. A musty smell in the cellar is a tell-tale sign of increased moisture and risk of mould.
Mould infestation
Causes of damp in the cellar
Mould growth in basements is often the result of incorrect ventilation and high humidity. Inadequate thermal insulation, water damage, damp walls and structural defects such as leaking basement windows or inadequate sealing cause warm air to condense and create the ideal breeding ground for mould. In old buildings in particular, cold bridges are a common problem and a frequent cause of mould in basements.
Mould removers and household remedies like vinegar, which only deal with mould on the surface, do not help with an infestation. At the very least they do not provide a long term solution of the problem. It is therefore all the more important to rely on a treatment that eliminates the issue at the root – in the wall core itself.

How much surface area does a heating element dry and how many elements do I need?
What needs to be considered when drying cellars?
Mould-DRY is ideal for drying cellar walls. In cellars, especially in older buildings, it is often not just a matter of damp corners or small patches. The walls and floors often attract ground moisture or rainwater from outside or below, causing entire walls to become damp. In the event of heavy rain or flooding, water can even penetrate directly into the cellar. Mould-DRY offers a slower, yet efficient and energy-saving alternative to large drying appliances for dehumidifying such areas.
Does Mould-DRY also help with efflorescence from salts or minerals?
The moisture that escapes from the wall usually carries salts and dissolved minerals with it, which dry on the surface and form crystals. Mould-DRY works more gently and sustainably than conventional dehumidifiers, significantly reducing the formation of crystals. As soon as the wall is dry, there is no longer any moisture in which the salts can dissolve, so they no longer reach the surface.
How does Mould-DRY work if new moisture is constantly being drawn in?
However, if the causes of the penetrating moisture are not eliminated, a continuous or seasonally recurring drying process is required.
