Air Moving Equipment Used in Water Damage Remediation

The effects of water damage can be immediate or occur gradually over time, depending on the water's source and the extent of the damage. Removing the residual moisture as quickly as possible is the best way to protect your property against such problems. 

SERVPRO techs use a combination of dehumidifiers and air movers to create ideal drying conditions. Dehumidifiers reduce the humidity of the air, while the air movers help to speed up the drying process in the following ways:

• Generate high-speed airflow across wet surfaces, removing the boundary layer to accelerate evaporation. 
• Help to circulate warm and dry air from dehumidifiers 
• Help dry structural cavities and other hard-to-reach areas

How Restorers Increase the Efficiency of Air Movers?

Techs increase the efficiency of air movers by strategically placing them in the affected area and adjusting the airflow direction. Generally, techs run air movers for at least 24-48 hours after the initial water damage occurs. However, the exact amount of time needed to dry out the area depends on factors such as the type of water damage, the size of the affected area, the humidity levels, and the temperature of the space.
