Construction Material Drying

Dry Buildings with Heat™

Today, many new structures are built with green lumber that is still high in moisture content. Problems may occur during construction as a result of inclement weather, high humidity, or other conditions resulting in vapor intrusion and condensation on structural members.

Mold problems may be found in structures that have never leaked because of these types of problems occurring during construction. If high moisture levels are detected, application of the ThermaPureHeat® process after framing and sheathing can reduce moisture levels 6 -8%. If this process is complete prior to construction of vapor barriers and erection of sheet rock walls, mold will not colonize or amplify within the structure.

Additionally, finish shrinkage will not occur to any great extent. ThermaPureHeat® is an excellent preventive measure during the construction process.
