Summary
Although pipe sweating is the major source of dampness and mold growth in many buildings, control efforts during renovation and maintenance are often ineffective. Condensation from chilled water piping (CWP) is generally overlooked because it is hidden behind ceilings and walls or in mechanical spaces. Sweating occurs where there are insulation deficiencies.
