Four Principles of High-Speed Structural Drying
1. Physical Removal of Water (Extraction) – Removal of water in the liquid state is 500 times more efficient than evaporation.
2. Air Flow (Evaporation) – After as much water as possible has been removed physically, the remaining water must be evaporated using high-velocity air. Over the last few years, new types of air movers have been introduced that provide much higher air movement at lower amperage and are specifically designed for high-speed structural drying.
3. Dehumidification (Balanced Evaporation) – Dehumidifiers are used to balance evaporation. In other words, the moisture being put into the air from the air movers has to be taken out of the air, or secondary damage will occur. Without dehumidifiers, hygroscopic materials would absorb moisture out of the air and become damaged, drying would be delayed, and mold growth could occur. By utilizing the new low refrigerant dehumidifiers we can remove much more moisture from the affected area than ever before.
4. Temperatures (Control) – Maintaining proper temperature is critical in drying a structure quickly. Warm air holds more moisture than cool air; therefore, warm air will increase the rate of evaporation. Keeping the temperature of the affected area between 80-90 degrees Fahrenheit for the first 36-48 hours can assist drying enormously. Drying chambers can be used to contain the warmer temperatures to the affected areas.
