Our home is in two sections, older bungalow (20 years old), new section (10 years old) kitchen, upstairs bedroom.
kids sleep in older rooms - had a problem during winter months with lot of condensation on kids windows.
As no problem in our own bedroom window assumed insulation was better in new section of house.
Attempt to fix:
Cavity wall and attic top-up insulation.
Trickle vents added to all windows.
The vents helped a little bit, a football size space around vent has no condensation but rest of window still covered in condensation.
Do I need bigger vents? How big should they be?
Are core (wall) vents better than window vents?
Why is our own room OK, is it sometime to do with kids rooms being on ground floor?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
