VERT / GREEN
Measure water/air temperature and humidity; inspect condensation and corrosion before changing finishes.
Indoor pool humidity, envelope and ventilation
Treat evaporation, dehumidification, air pressure, cold surfaces, corrosion, glazing and envelope as one system.
JAUNE / YELLOW
An indoor pool creates a continuous moisture load that can migrate into walls/roof if pressure and air barriers are not controlled.
ROUGE / RED
Interstitial condensation, extensive mould, structural corrosion or improvised ventilation: specialized design required.
Interactive triage
Helps choose the next step; does not replace design, permits or professional diagnosis.
Useful tools and data
- Hygrometer/data logger
- Water/air temperature
- Envelope/HVAC plan
What the professional checks
- Calculate evaporation load
- Design pressure/dehumidification
- Assess corrosion and envelope
