Drying solutions with first class turbo driers, air movers and general water damage & carpet drying equipment.

What causes Water Damage

Most water damage is not weather related! Toilet overflows, broken washing machine supply lines, faulty plumbing and other indoor accidents cause the majority of floods. Protec™ turbo driers can be used to dry out any of the above situations.

Why Protec™ Turbo-Driers/Air movers can reduce the cost and complexity of water and flood damage.
Water not only weakens organic structural materials. It also supports the growth of micro organisms. As water flows through a structure it often carries a variety of micro organisms harmful to humans. Health hazards are even greater when the source of the water is "dirty” Micro organisms can enter the body through cuts, laceration, and puncture wounds to the skin. They can also enter through the mouth, nose and eyes.
Within in minutes water contamination spreads in all directions. Paper goods, food in cupboards, floors etc are all ruined as they absorb the moisture. Stains and dyes released from furniture & stain carpets. Using Protec™ turbo driers/Air movers dramatically reduce this damage and increases drying times.

Furniture in direct contact with water soaks up water, swells, cracks delaminates and splits. Fabric and carpets are stained. Plywood swells and comes apart. Bacteria - caused odour.s develop and infest all materials in the environment. Both the cost and complexity of resolving the damage is increased the longer the water is not dried therefore by using Protec™ turbo driers/Air movers the damage can be reduced dramatically.
If the moisture is not eliminated within days moisture penetrates into floors and walls, pianos and organs, electronic devices. Metal begins to rust. Musty and sour odour’s becoming permanently integrated with fabric fibres. Mould and Mildew begin growing causing serious health risk has now taken place. By using Protec™ turbo driers/Air movers early on in the process this type of damage need not occur.

Why is a professional drying system such as Protec™ Turbo Driers/Air movers/carpet driers and fast response so important?
Most indoor carpet, furniture, building materials such as plywood and drywall, etc are designed for tolerance of 'normal indoor humidity - 40%- 60% relative humidity. A flooded site , however may have 90 % relative humidity for days. Only through use of properly deployed by knowledge professionals, can this humidity be rapidly and safely reduced, substantially reducing damaged and the need for costly reconstruction or replacements. Once again the use of Protec™ turbo driers when using dehumidifiers can speed up the drying process.
