| | Durability depends on the trapping of moisture. Even though New
Mexico is very dry, moist moisture sources that can degrade a home are
inside the home
Durability Tips
 | Walls should not be covered on both sides with vapor barriers |
 | Exhaust fans installed at all intermittent moisture sources- stove, baths,
laundry. |
 | Continuous moisture sources like fountains, pools, hot tubs, and large
numbers of plants should be out side the living space. |
 | Proper air venting over insulation in the roof |
 | Limit roof penetrations or low spots |
