Mark Roland, Lead Engineer at Hometree, the boiler & home cover, explained: “Many people may think that the solution to damp is cranking up the central heating to dry it out.
“However, it isn’t as simple as that. Central heating won’t prevent damp by itself, but can help with certain types of damp.
“The main type of damp that central heating helps combat is condensation, often found in rooms that don’t get used as much as others. Another common form of damp is found behind furniture, where air circulation is poor.
“Normally condensation happens when moist air becomes trapped in your house, then hits a colder surface, like your wall, for example. The moisture can soak into the wall and cause mould to form.”
