Vinyl wallcovering has little or no moisture permeability. If the design, construction or maintenance of a building and/or other circumstances allows moisture to accumulate in a wall or wall cavity, vinyl wallcovering can act as a vapor barrier restricting the escape of moisture and increasing the risk of mold growth. Mold and mildew are naturally occurring and are present everywhere in nature. They need only water and organic material [such as wood, paper or plant material] to feed upon and grow. Vinyl wallcovering permeability can be increased through perforation and alternative product constructions with varying degrees of increased permeability depending on the methods used. No wall surfacing material will prevent mold growth, however, if moisture accumulation is permitted to occur. An experienced professional who is familiar with building conditions and circumstances should be consulted concerning benefits and limitations of vinyl wallcovering.

Consult an architect or fire safety engineer for information on applicable building codes and reduction of fire hazards, including the use of sprinklers
