Psychrometrics is the science behind Structural Drying And Dehumidification, and skipping it usually means either under-drying a space or leaving equipment running far longer than necessary.
Our Marathon, WI drying plans start with thermal imaging to map exactly where moisture is hiding.

We calculate drying requirements using temperature and humidity data, not a flat per-room rule.
Low Grain Refrigerant dehumidifiers pull significantly more moisture from the air than consumer-grade units.
We map hidden moisture with thermal imaging before finalizing equipment placement.
Daily logs give you and your insurer verifiable proof of progress, not a technician's word.
Below is the calculated, documented process our Marathon, WI teams follow.

Psychrometric formulas determine exactly how much equipment capacity the space requires.
Thermal imaging often reveals moisture has traveled further than the visible damage suggested.
Equipment is placed according to calculated airflow paths, not an even spread across the room.
Documented logs track the numbers from day one through final verification.
Hardwood floors and built-in cabinetry require slower, more controlled drying to avoid warping.
We provide a written verification report confirming the structure has reached dry standard.
A quick call helps us determine whether thermal imaging and full drying equipment are needed.
Equipment for psychrometric assessment is standard on every drying dispatch.
We complete the psychrometric assessment and thermal scan, then provide a written drying plan and quote.
The job closes only once documented readings confirm the structure is fully dry.

"The thermal imaging found moisture behind a wall that looked completely fine from the outside. Would have missed it otherwise." — Julian R.
"They came back every single day to take readings and showed me the numbers improving. Felt like real science, not guesswork." — Monique T.
"Our hardwood floor didn't warp because they slowed the drying process down specifically for it." — Grant P.
Visual appearance doesn't confirm dryness — instrument readings are needed to catch what's not visible.
It's a calculated approach using temperature and humidity data to determine exact equipment needs, rather than guessing.
Most jobs run 3-5 days, though hardwood and cabinetry may need longer, more controlled drying.
We provide daily documented logs showing moisture readings, not just a verbal update.
We adjust the drying plan whenever sensitive materials are involved.
A stall in the daily logs triggers a plan review rather than simply leaving equipment running unchanged.
Marathon is within our core structural drying response zone.
