How this tool works
Drying time follows the material and how saturated it is. Slab and tile give water up fastest, drywall and framing take longer, and hardwood and plaster are slowest. A contained Class 1 loss usually dries in three to five days.
Puget Sound air is cool and damp for much of the year, which slows evaporation, so opening windows rarely helps in the wet season. That is why the drying team works to readings: equipment comes out when wet materials sit within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference, as described on the structural drying page.
