Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Claremont, NH
Sealed air movers and dehumidifiers bring framing, subfloor and drywall back to a measured dry standard, with daily readings logged from inside the material. The wet area is sealed, air movers and dehumidifiers run as one system, and the material is read at marked points every day against a dry standard from an unaffected room. The equipment leaves on the readings rather than on a date, and the final readings are logged so the rebuild starts on a documented dry structure.

Often needed alongside
- Emergency Water Extraction
Standing water is pumped and extracted around the clock, before it climbs the walls and soaks the subfloor. Same-day response where coverage allows.
- Mold Inspection & Testing
An independent assessor confirms whether the assembly that got wet is actually dry, whether growth started while it was not, and how far it reaches.
Frequently asked questions
What does a penstock do?
The pipe that carries water from an intake above the falls down to the turbines below. It runs under considerable pressure because the head is what produces the power, and here it passes through ground that is now built up.
Why is that different from a canal?
Because of the pressure. Water in an open canal leaks gently; water in a penstock is under a head of many feet, so a failure releases with force and volume, and it does so at whatever point the pipe has weakened.
Is the system still in use?
In many of these towns, yes, which is worth knowing. Small hydro at old mill sites has been recommissioned in a good many places, so what looks like an industrial relic can be live plant with water in it under pressure.
