The architect went to great lengths to control moisture from the indoor pool from affecting the rest of the home:
An ice & water shield was placed on the inside of the wall and ceiling assembly, preventing moisture from escaping and condensing into the wall and roof cavities.
A Pool cover keeps humidity levels down while nobody is swimming.
A Standard dehumidification system was used, which has been working fine with the other measures in place.
Blower door tests were run twice to ensure that the building envelope was air tight.
The pool room is under negative pressure, preventing the moisture from escaping into the rest of the house.
Love the light and open above feel even though not really vaulted.
