When unexpected water intrusions occur in homes and buildings, it is crucial to act quickly to minimize damage and restore safe living conditions. With over seventy years of experience, Wood’s is a trusted authority in dehumidification and indoor climate control. Our expertise has resulted in world-leading dehumidifiers, such as the WCD series, which is specifically designed to combat water damage.
Drying a moisture damage can vary significantly depending on several factors, including the extent of the damage and the type of material affected. Minor damage can dry in a few days while major damage may require several weeks to dry completely.
Effectively dehumidifying affected areas is crucial to ensure that the property is safe and habitable again. In addition to taking care of visible water damage, dehumidification also addresses hidden risks such as moisture penetration into structures, which can lead to serious problems like mold growth and rot.
A dehumidifier should run long enough to create an environment where microbial growth, such as mold and rot, can no longer thrive. However, there is no set rule for how long a dehumidifier should run, as this can vary depending on factors such as the extent of the damage, the type of material and environmental conditions. It is important to monitor humidity levels and continue using the dehumidifier until an appropriate humidity level is reached to prevent future problems with microbial growth.
Homes and buildings that have been affected by flooding require solutions that quickly dry out the areas and parts that are susceptible to moisture damage, mold and rot.
For more than seventy years, Wood’s has been a trusted source of knowledge in dehumidification and indoor climate control. This knowledge and expertise has helped develop and manufacture world-renowned dehumidifiers, such as the WCD series for water damage restoration.
Effective dehumidification allows residents to move back into a risk-free home, as the dehumidification process also addresses the hidden risks of water damage, including moisture penetration into concrete, house and crawl spaces, which can cause building structural damage and mold growth.
The WCD Series industrial dehumidifier models offer superior drying and are highly energy efficient for use in water damage applications. Depending on the size of the affected surface and the extent of the water damage, the WCD series offers a wide range of capacities and energy efficiency.
