Thermal Bridges: Hidden Heat and Mold Risk

You can never build a one hundred percent perfect house, and that imperfection is destroying your

energy bill. It is called a thermal bridge. Basically, it is a specific

spot in your walls, like a corner or a steel beam, that sucks heat out faster than

the insulation around it. It acts like a magnet for cold. Here is the scary

part. Warm air holds moisture, but when it hits that cold spot, it panics and dumps

the water instantly. That is how you get mold without a leak. Keep those corners

insulated or the fungus wins.
