Isolation Space Blankets Wet Spots In Plaster Wall?

Wet spots in plaster wall? - isolation space blankets

We have a plaster wall between the bathroom and bedroom, the open spaces between them for insulation. We lived in the house for seven years. After half a year in the wall of the room shows water stains in several places, with the top form. It starts at several places of the earth and rising. The bathroom is tiled, so do not think that there is a leak through the wall of the shower, and some points are in a place where there is never water in the next room, bathroom. Suggestions on how to find the source of stains? Thank you.

If no pipe go through it, then maybe a leak in the roof of the rain ... have to go in the attic, no matter whether something is leaking.

Do not forget to also condense in the air and when it above or near the wall. I'm talking about an air-conditioning "unit" and not just air conditioning throughout the house.

You know what? My bathroom had tiles all the way to the roof, but the thing Dang leak through the wall anyway! Unfortunately, we had a comfortable against the wall next to the bedroom, and we realized that the wet plaster for long. Finally, the bubbles, and we had to start from the partition wall between bathroom and bedroom. We found that (the distribution of gypsum was really no drywall had to be replaced) completely, but installed a fiberglass shower, with the hope that it will not. Gypsum is not wet. You must test at least some of the holes and into the wall to see where the water would come. It could be as simple as a small hole in the hose spray some or great as a leaky roof. One thing is for sure not to ignore something!

I am afraid he has to take a sledgehammer to the wall, it was obviously something that the leak in the wall, is the only way I know to find the leak, see the leak and repair from there at the beginning

They have a lot of moisture bathing areas. My guess is that the humid air in the bathroom on the rise and condensation in your attic. The water then flows back through the interior walls, ceiling, or wherever it into the path of least resistance. Companies can find the source of evidence, but you can also try some simple tips for themselves in order to eliminate the problem.
1. Ensure good ventilation in the attic. The air has to travel (usually shortly before leaving the gable or ridge can be blocked. Make sure that the airway is not blocked.
2. Even if you do not get a fan in the bathroom, also. They are relatively cheap, easy and not difficult to install. If you are a fan, ensure that the ventilation. Wind that some people put them in the attic ... in moist air condenses and accumulates and leads to problems like yours. Wind your fan to the outside
3 humidifiers can cause excess moisture in the air.

Insulation in the wall will not solve the problem because he is an insider --and the wall. In addition to the source code you have determined just wet insulation.
