Drying a structure correctly isn't about running a few fans and hoping — it's a calculated process based on temperature, humidity, and airflow readings.
Our Ada, MN drying plans start with thermal imaging to map exactly where moisture is hiding.
We calculate drying requirements using temperature and humidity data, not a flat per-room rule.
Low Grain Refrigerant dehumidifiers pull significantly more moisture from the air than consumer-grade units.
Thermal imaging cameras reveal moisture patterns behind walls and under flooring that aren't visible to the eye.
Moisture readings are logged daily throughout the Structural Drying And Dehumidification job so progress is measurable, not assumed.
Here's the full scope of a Structural Drying And Dehumidification job in Ada, from initial scan to final verification.
The assessment sets the baseline every later reading gets measured against.
Thermal imaging often reveals moisture has traveled further than the visible damage suggested.
We position air movers to create directed airflow across wet surfaces based on the assessment.
A technician returns daily to take moisture readings and log progress against the drying plan.
We adjust drying speed for sensitive materials like hardwood and cabinetry to prevent secondary damage.
The job closes only once moisture readings match the documented dry standard for each material type.
We ask enough to bring the right instruments on the first visit.
A technician arrives with thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters ready to assess.
We complete the psychrometric assessment and thermal scan, then provide a written drying plan and quote.
A written verification report backs the final sign-off.
"The thermal imaging found moisture behind a wall that looked completely fine from the outside. Would have missed it otherwise." — Julian R.
"They came back every single day to take readings and showed me the numbers improving. Felt like real science, not guesswork." — Monique T.
"Our hardwood floor didn't warp because they slowed the drying process down specifically for it." — Grant P.
We rely on moisture meters and thermal imaging, not appearance alone.
It's a calculated approach using temperature and humidity data to determine exact equipment needs, rather than guessing.
Timeline depends on material type and how much moisture the thermal scan revealed.
Daily documentation is standard, giving you real data rather than just an assurance.
Yes, we use slower, controlled drying specifically calibrated for hardwood to prevent warping.
We reassess the plan, since stalled readings usually mean equipment placement or capacity needs adjusting, not just more time.
