According to the wet foam, I just looked again in the hole and saw some water. Probably water what is inside the foam sinks down (gravity logic). I also put the vacuumcleaner on the foam and it sucked all water out, maybe to speed the process up tomorrow I leave the vacuumcleaner a long time sucking on the foam.Happy you've found water with your first two exploratory wells , I have som wet foam areas so am following your post. One idea I had first was too dangerous involving flammable solvents so I'm still working the problem out mentally and hoping for a minimally invasive procedure that could help others. I am thinking of making a wire wisk along the lines of a plumber's snake that can be spun in the cavity through a relatively small hole or series of holes in the affected areas to shred the foam to small enough pieces that would allow for either vacuume extraction or pressure exerted from a small hole higher up in the cavity wall.
Another idea is an attachment to a pressure washing hose with multiple jets that could be inserted through a small hole and shred the foam for extraction. I will of course share results if and when I come up with a method that works and is safe. Meanwhile if you try any of these methods and come with solutions or problems in the process please share
I am affraid that, with your problem, new water comes in let your foam stay wet or is it getting dryer?
Humidity level in masterbedroom stays low and no condensation at the portlights. We were all day away till 21:00, in the morning we turned the heater off and humidifier was in guestroom with doors closed.
Went out this morning with 58% / 18*C , came back 61% /9,5*C
looking good
