How to Avoid Condensation Below a Cold-Room Floor?

 

Cold room panels are widely used in today’s industries due to the many benefits they cater. Cold rooms are made with PUF Panels with thermal insulation, corrosion-resistant and are available in many colours to give an aesthetic look to your vicinity. When we install cold rooms, there are high chances that the floor below the cold room may experience condensation, and it also happens because the environment is warm. The cold rooms can experience heavy-duty loads sometimes, leading to long-term leaks and prevails condensation under the cold-room floor.

 

What causes condensation below a cold-room floor?

  • Poor ventilation:

Lack of ventilation can form moisture in the air, which can contact cold surfaces and form condensation.

  • Warm Temperature:

If the temperature outside cold room is high, then there is a possibility of condensation on the panels.

 

How to prevent it?

  • Replace the door seal:

The most important factor is to replace the door seal, which may act as a conducting agent between inside and outside environment. Replacing the door seal will prevent any warm air from sweeping inside the cold room and restricting condensation.

  • Secondary barrier:

If the door is being constantly operated, the chances are high that air could enter the environment. PVC strip curtains act as the second barrier and prevent any air from entering.

  • Cold room doors also play an important role in maintain the balance of the cold room and prevent any condensation.
  • If the door seal is working correctly, adjust the door strike. It may be one effective method to prevent condensation in the cold room.
  • Increase ventilation: poor airflow can also result in condensation problem; if you face constant condensation problems, one way is to ensure a proper ventilation system.
  • Choosing a correct panel manufacturer is also essential as high-quality panels will ensure prevention of the condensation.
