As an example, they analyze whether the drying room will have the ability to dissipate heat as required and bring down increased levels of humidity present in the air.

They also utilize their expertise to determine the temperature that must be reached and make sure the specified temperature range is maintained.

What are the important points to keep note of during the application of heat drying?

Water damage repair professionals utilize heat drying for compact and heavy materials like masonry, plaster, concrete, in addition to structural lumber.

However, they guarantee that unwanted condensation does not occur due to the rapid evaporation that could take place when additional heat is applied to cooler surfaces, such as exterior walls using a cooler inside.

Experts understand that such condensation could lead to secondary damage.

How can they prevent damage to things as a result of high heat?

Water damage mitigation specialists will thoroughly assess your home and the items within to make sure they can withstand the high temperatures utilized during the drying process.

Material weakness in the form of failure or sagging can occur for things like plastic blinds, and overdosing can cause cracking and shrinkage of wood trims.

Other issues, water damage cleanup experts keep note of through the use of heat drying include:

If the temperature goes over 90OF, it softens the white glue present in crown moldings, and if moldings have internal stress, the joints may start.

Why it is necessary to monitor the heat drying process?

Apart, from tracking the affected area, water damage repair technicians also analyze and monitor unaffected areas.

They understand that the lack of vapor barriers for ceilings and interior walls, in addition to penetrations made for HVAC and utilities, increase humidity levels in untouched locations.

By continually monitoring the drying process they’re able to assess whether condensation has dried in untouched locations.
