Dehumidification

Whenever there is a water damage emergency, it’s important to get the quickest and most proper repair. Water can result in serious property damage, and porous building materials will decompose as they absorb the excess moisture. The moisture also condenses into the air and causes secondary damage. Long-term property damage can be reduced significantly if proper structural drying and industrial dehumidification take place within 48 hours of the initial damage, which can also reduce the chance of mold growth.

Structural Drying Steps

HCS’s professional technicians are properly certified and trained to provide dehumidification and structural drying services. Upon arriving at your residential or commercial property, we will get to work immediately: evaluating the affected areas, taking down measurements, and determining the best approach.

The following steps are included within our structural drying process:

1. Non-Invasive Electronic Moisture Detection

First, we will use advanced electronic moisture detection meters to measure the moisture levels on your property. With this technology, our technicians can measure the moisture levels of wall interiors and building cavities without damaging your property. This will allow us to determine the best course of action for quick, efficient drying.

When determining the equipment and layout needed for effective drying, we use various psychometric factors: calculations of thermodynamic properties for water and air vapors, saturation levels, and room measurement. We will constantly monitor the process by using non-invasive moisture meters.

2. Water Extraction

Before drying can be done, water and excess moisture need to be eliminated. We will provide moisture and water extraction using advanced equipment. With proper and thorough drying, building materials should not sustain structural damage or mold growth.

To develop the necessary airflow for proper drying, our technicians will remove waterlogged building materials. Additionally, we can treat ceilings, drywall, flooring, wood, foundation walls, interior walls, attics, subflooring, and other building materials that have been damaged. If these materials are dried incorrectly, then they will sustain further damage.

3. Dehumidification

We customize our drying services for each situation. Our technicians will decide and develop the best airflow patterns for your property. We also take a strategic approach when setting up drying equipment throughout the property, strategically placing our equipment for thorough structural drying.

The following equipment is used during the drying and dehumidification process:

  • Industrial blowers: Industrial blowers work in a precise manner and work well for drying properties following a residential flood.
  • Desiccant dehumidifiers: When there’s extreme water saturation, desiccant drying is often used. This type of drying works on a large scale and uses highly controlled warm air.
  • Moisture meters: Our technicians will take various moisture measurements throughout the drying process. We track the progress by using infrared camera technology. With constant monitoring, we can do a better job at targeting and enhancing our drying process.

We can be reached for emergency drying services on a 24/7 basis by calling 918-876-3344.
