Psychrometrics is the science behind Structural Drying And Dehumidification, and skipping it usually means either under-drying a space or leaving equipment running far longer than necessary.
Our Olney, IL drying plans start with thermal imaging to map exactly where moisture is hiding.
Every Structural Drying And Dehumidification job in Olney, IL starts with psychrometric calculations that determine exactly how much airflow and dehumidification capacity is needed.
Our Olney, IL jobs run commercial LGR equipment sized to the calculated moisture load.
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.
Below is the calculated, documented process our Olney, IL teams follow.
We calculate temperature, humidity, and grain depression readings to build the drying plan.
Thermal imaging often reveals moisture has traveled further than the visible damage suggested.
Dehumidifier capacity is matched to the calculated moisture load for that specific space.
Daily monitoring confirms equipment is working and adjusts the plan if progress stalls.
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.
The job closes only once documented readings confirm the structure is fully dry.
"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.
A room can look dry on the surface while moisture meters still detect trapped moisture inside materials.
It's a calculated approach using temperature and humidity data to determine exact equipment needs, rather than guessing.
Most jobs run 3-5 days, though hardwood and cabinetry may need longer, more controlled drying.
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.
