     Have you experienced a water leak, flood or intrusion? Then you are probably familiar with the equipment pictured.

     From the left there about a dozen air movers. These air movers are used to dry. These aid in part of the drying process. The air movers are used to dry surfaces which in turn cause the moisture contntent to go from any surface into the air. That's where the dehumidifiers come in. Next you can see that there are three LGR (low grain refrigerent) commercial dehumidifiers. This piece of equipment is vital to the process as they remove the excess moisture that the air movers put into the air. Without removing the air moisture content the air will become 100% saturated and surfaces will not continue to dry. The two air movers on the right are a sort of specialty equipment. The first air mover is the round one, called an axial air mover. It is used to dry flooring, jetting a high velocity of air directly down on the wet areas. The last air mover has a few extra plugs on the side of it allowing us to chain several air movers together when there are not sufficient outlets available.

     As you can see it takes several pieces of specialized equipment to perform the drying process after sustaining water intrusion. If you have just experienced a watter issue and do not know what to do, just call the professionals at SERVPRO.
