Desiccant Dehumidification Methods Used in Carson
Construction Drying Services
Readings on slabs and framing show when materials are dry enough for the next stage of work.
Flood Drying Services
Floodwater is treated as contaminated, so soaked porous materials are removed and surfaces cleaned before drying starts.
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.
Mold Prevention Drying
Drying an area quickly after affected materials are removed limits regrowth. Desiccant units help reach low humidity in closed work areas.
Crawl Space Drying
Crawl spaces are cool and damp, which suits desiccant units. Dry air is pushed in to pull moisture from the joists and subfloor.
