How to Set Up Your Dehumidifier for Maximum Drying Efficiency
Plugging in a commercial dehumidifier isn't always enough to dry water damage quickly. Learn how to drastically cut your drying time by building proper containment zones, placing air movers strategically, and routing dry air directly into wet wall cavities.
How many air scrubbers do I need?
The number of air scrubbers you need depends on the size of the area and the work being done. One unit may be enough for a small room, while larger spaces often need multiple machines for better air circulation and filtration.
How Long Should You Run an Air Scrubber?
Different restoration jobs demand different air clearance timelines. Learn how long you need to run your commercial equipment to effectively eliminate remodeling dust, mitigate mold spores, or extract smoke odors from your property.
Air Scrubbers vs. Air Purifiers: Understanding the Difference
An air purifier is a residential appliance used to manage seasonal allergies, while an air scrubber is a heavy-duty HEPA filtration system used by professionals to eliminate thick smoke, extract harmful VOCs, and sanitize the air after a restoration job.
Air Scrubber vs Negative Air Machine
Understanding the difference ensures proper containment on restoration projects. Air scrubbers filter and recirculate air inside the workspace. A negative-air setup uses a properly contained space, ducting, and a filtered exhaust path to maintain negative pressure and reduce the migration of airborne contaminants.
