Comprehensive Desiccant Dehumidification for Pinehurst

Desiccant or refrigerant dehumidifiers are chosen based on the space, the temperature and how dry the air needs to get.
Emergency Dehumidification
Help is available any hour to set up drying equipment after a leak or flood, so moisture does not sit overnight in materials.
Construction Drying Services
Readings on slabs and framing show when materials are dry enough for the next stage of work.

Desiccant Dehumidification FAQs
How long does crawl space drying typically take?
Often several days, depending on how wet the framing is and how cool and damp the space stays.
How are moisture levels monitored during drying?
With hygrometers for air and moisture meters for drywall, wood and concrete, checked every day.
How does a desiccant dehumidifier work differently?
It passes air over a material that absorbs moisture instead of cooling the air, so it keeps working in cool conditions.
What does water damage dehumidification include?
Taking readings, placing dehumidifiers and air movers, logging progress daily and confirming materials are dry.
How is emergency dehumidification different from standard service?
It starts right after a leak or flood, any time of day, so materials do not keep soaking up moisture.
