Why damp turns up in Polokwane
Polokwane is the Limpopo capital, a high-lying bushveld city of around 1,300 metres, with hot summers, thunderstorms and dry, cold-at-night winters. Outdoor humidity is low most of the year, so damp here is mainly condensation in cold winter bedrooms in Seshego and Flora Park, mould in bathrooms of Bendor and Westenburg, and leaks in storms. Hospitals, offices, hotels, warehouses and cold stores along the N1 and in the industrial areas need steady air. Humidifiers matter in dry winters. Suppliers and contractors are mostly in town, with extra from Pretoria.
