Hi,

We have a site which is a care home with rooms which are used for storing corpses. The room is kept at 5 degrees but has a standard room construction with plasterboard, bricks, normal roof space, etc. There is extra fibreglass insulation in the loft but I don't think the walls are insulated. The room is designed like this as people view the bodies in the rooms. It has been in use for 3 years but use is sporadic (1 week here, 2 weeks there, etc.).

Lately water staining has shown up on walls, ceilings, light fittings and certain metal items like lamps are showing signs of rust. We have had a summer of sustained warm weather, and I believe that moisture is being drawn in from outside and is remaining in the fabric of the room, has anyone got any ideas, similar cases or ideas of how to remedy the situation or a way of having an aesthetically acceptable environment but with a cold room purpose.

Thanks
