Drying, stage by stage

Sequence beats equipment on a wet building. The stages below come from IICRC S500 - all of them the contractor's work, each one setting the size of the next.

  1. Step 1: Stop and remove

    The source is shut off, then free water is pumped and extracted. Every hour water stands, it climbs further into drywall and subfloor, so this stage sets the size of everything after it.

  2. Step 2: Open and map

    Baseboard, wet drywall and soaked insulation come out, and meters read the material behind them. The wet edge is marked where the moisture stops, not where the stain does.

  3. Step 3: Dry to a number

    Air movers and dehumidifiers run as a sealed system, and the same points are read daily. The equipment leaves when the readings reach the dry standard for that material, not on a set day.

  4. Step 4: Close up

    Rebuild starts only after the structure is confirmed dry. Insulation, drywall and finishes go back over an assembly that will not feed anything later.

What drying a building in Titusville involves

When a floor is wet in Titusville, the call routes to an independent local contractor for water damage restoration, across town and out to Country Club Estates. Some of the older houses run their ducts inside the slab, and a duct that takes water cannot be dried where it lies.

What the houses are made of

The typical Titusville house dates to 1982, with roughly two thirds of the stock (68.7 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1980s work. Around a median of 1982 with seven in ten homes predating 1990, a share of the older houses were built with the supply ducts cast into the concrete floor, so a slab loss puts water into a closed channel under the building that has no access, no drainage and no way to move air through it.

Drying conditions

A normal year here delivers 55.2 inches, 7.87 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 82.1 degrees in July; both figures recorded at TITUSVILLE, 3.5 miles away. June is the wettest month of a fifty-five inch year and nothing freezes, so the ground under the slab stays damp for much of the calendar; a duct buried in that concrete is the coolest surface in the building and collects moisture whether or not there has been a loss.

How water losses tend to end in Titusville

  • Ducts cast into the slab, so a floor loss fills a closed channel that cannot be opened, dried or inspected from inside the house
  • The system carrying moisture out of that duct into every room, so the building is being humidified by its own cooling until it is shut down
  • Concrete around the duct staying cool and damp, so condensation adds to the problem independently of the original loss

Frequently asked questions

Water got into the ducts in the floor. What are the options?

Realistically, abandoning them. A duct cast into concrete cannot be opened, dried or cleaned in place, and anything that gets in stays. The usual outcome is that the floor system is sealed off and new ducting is run overhead or through the attic, which is a substantial decision to face early rather than late.

Why is the air handler being shut off straight away?

Because it is moving the problem around. Running the blower pulls air across whatever is standing in the floor duct and delivers it to every room in the house, so the whole building picks up moisture and the wet area effectively becomes everywhere. The system stays off and the drying equipment conditions the space instead.

Was the duct wet before the loss?

Quite possibly, and it is worth knowing. Concrete in contact with damp ground stays cool, so a duct cast into it runs below the dew point for much of the year and collects condensation as a matter of course. Readings taken during the job often show a condition that predates the leak, which changes what is worth rebuilding.
