Dehumidification Equipment

12/4/2015 (Permalink)

By extracting water vapor from the air, dehumidifiers lower the relative humidity, which in turn increases the rate of evaporation. In a water damaged structure, dehumidifiers pull in the moist, humid air then discharge dry, warm air. The dry air acts like a sponge, absorbing moisture from wet materials. SERVPRO Franchise professionals use two types of dehumidifiers.

** Refrigerant dehumidifiers - work similarly to air conditioners.

** Desiccant Dehumidifiers - use chemicals called desiccants that readily absorb moisture from the air.
