Keeping a Construction Project Dry
A large general contractor was involved in a remodel project where there was going to be a large amount of original wood framing exposed throughout the duration of the build. Due to the potential for extremely humid conditions, the contractor needed to have the ability to keep the exposed area dry and free from moisture. In addition, even though the area is protected from the elements, there was also a need to be able to dry the area out quickly and effectively in the event of leakage due to of a rain storm.
Representatives from United Rental Climate Solutions and Power HVAC were called in to asses the situation and provide an effective solution. It was determined due to the size of the area that Climate would deliver (25) LGR Dehumidifiers to be placed strategically throughout the space to provide drying power. Each LGR would be coupled with (2) 3 speed air movers to help circulate air inside the space in order to maintain even drying across the project. Power was supplied by a generator and distribution boxes provided by UR Power HVAC.
