Hygrothermal modeling offers powerful tools for predicting heat and moisture transport through multi-layer building assemblies.  We employ independently validated software such as WUFI® Pro and hygIRC to simulate building performance under natural conditions.  These simulations use real climatic variables and actual material properties to determine moisture storage, vapor and capillary transport, and temperature dynamics. 

Our clients rely on computer modeling to accurately predict construction drying times, condensation problems, solar-driven moisture, moisture transport through reservoir cladding, mold growth, long-term system behavior, and design criteria for moisture control.
