A major set back in the restoration process is the time taken to dry out buildings prior to starting remedial building work. There are potentially hundreds of litres of water that remain hidden within the building's structure.  Using a Dessicant has changed our industry.  It saves money everywhere.  Workers will be back to work quicker, your business will be back to pre-loss condition sooner and the speed of drying has haulted the chance for further damage and remidiation.

How This Process Works:

In the new equipment, the desiccant wheel is divided into sections and while air passes through one section to get dried, another section of the wheel is in "regeneration mode," i.e. at any time, one part of the bed will be in drying phase and the other in the regeneration phase. The desiccant wheel used in this technology has a honeycomb structure which improves the drying process and makes the drying process more uniform. Regeneration is the phase when the desiccant material gets rid of the water it absorbed during the drying process.

Warm air "holds" more moisture than cooler air. Air leaving a desiccant dehumidifier is warm, very dry and at high velocity, thereby providing the three essential ingredients necessary for fast and effective drying. The dry air can be easily ducted to where drying is needed most, whether it is under a floor, into a wall cavity or simply distributed to serve multiple areas.
