  1. Efflorescence Prevention DPCs help prevent the formation of efflorescence, which is the crystalline deposit of salts that can appear on the surface of walls. Prevention of Corrosion DPCs in buildings with metal elements, like steel beams, prevent corrosion from moisture, preserving their strength and stability. Protects Timber Elements In constructions with wooden elements, a DPC helps protect floor joists and other timber components from the detrimental effects of moisture. Thermal Insulation DPCs prevent moisture and sustain insulation effectiveness, enhancing overall thermal performance in buildings for efficient temperature regulation and energy conservation. https://www.climate-solutions.co.uk/
