Structural Drying and Air Movers

3/25/2020 (Permalink)

When your West Roxbury, MA commercial or residential property is damaged by water removing the standing water is only the first step of the structural drying process. 

Air movers are essential and necessary tools when drying structures.  They help move large amounts of air over surfaces and also increase performance levels of dehumidifiers. Both of these attributes are key to expediting the drying process. 

There are a number of different air movers that can be utilized depending on the size of the job: velo air movers, sahara air movers, ace air movers and vortex or axial air movers.

• Velo air movers are low-profile air movers that can be used to get to hard to reach areas and a great way to assist in the drying of wet carpeting.
• Sahara air movers are great for drying carpets and directing air upwards to helping with drying ceilings. 
• Vortex air movers (or axial air movers) are ideal for confined areas that are difficult to access, such as crawl spaces.  They are very effective at creating negative pressure and pushing humid air out of a space.
