520 |a“The Manitoba Homebuilders' Association and the New Home Warranty Program of Manitoba Inc. have reported many instances of homeowners experiencing basement condensation problems in new homes. A field investigation of Winnipeg houses was carried out during the May to September period of 1987 with the three objectives of determining the causes of excessive basement condensation in new homes, recommending appropriate remedial action, and suggesting construction practices which would avoid or reduce such problems. Fourteen houses which either exhibited a moisture problem or illustrated some other detail relevant to the condensation question were examined. Visual inspections of the grounds, exterior and interior of each house were made, particular attention being directed to drainage, the foundation, the basement interior, and the condensation problem. Spot measurements and continuous monitoring records of air temperature and moisture in the basement, on other interior levels, and outdoors were compared to concrete wall and floor surface temperatures and to the locations of surfaces where condensation was occurring"--Executive summary, p. i-ii.
