The idea behind OMBRELLO

Understand the cause.
Preserve the building.

Our short film explains the assessment, the OMBRELLO principle and the follow-up measurements. Film in German.

OMBRELLO uses an electrophysical process. Frequency generators emit electromagnetic oscillations in the kHz and MHz range through transmitter coils. These influence the forces that drive capillary moisture transport in masonry, returning existing wall moisture to the ground.

The system is designed for rising damp and moisture penetrating walls laterally. We assess its suitability for your building during the on-site analysis. Follow-up measurements at defined points document the drying progress. Leaks and condensation require other measures.

Transmission power is below one nanowatt. OMBRELLO complies with EMC requirements. You can find further details in the original English technical documents below.

Four models

Sized to your
building’s footprint.

From individual rooms to larger properties, four models cover different building footprints. We determine the right specification during the building analysis.
