The dew point is the temperature at which the air becomes saturated with moisture and the moisture begins to condense. In the context of the walls of a house, the dew point is important to prevent condensation from forming inside the walls, which can lead to problems with damp and mould.

Dew point moisture is formed when there is a temperature difference between the temperature inside the house and the outside air temperature. This is especially true during the off-season or winter.

When warm air containing moisture hits a cold wall surface, the air temperature can drop to the dew point, causing condensation.

Let's look at examples of dew point for walls made of SCIP panels (SIP concrete). We will take as a basis the standard panel - PPS-25 150 mm, concrete outside 50 mm and inside 50 mm.
