Dri-eaz Moisture Meters
On a drying job there are two different measurement tasks. One is finding where the moisture is — fast, repeatedly, across a whole floor. The other is documenting a number that has to stand up on a file.
Dri-Eaz instruments are built for the first. They are quick, robust and cheap enough to carry as a working tool rather than a delicate instrument.
The range covers the Dri-Eaz HydroSensor I and HydroSensor II moisture probes and the Wetchec hand-held moisture sensor.
How to choose
These are search tools, not survey instruments. Use them to map the wet area quickly, then take documented readings with a calibrated meter where a number has to be defended. Both steps matter and they are not the same step.
Check carpet and underlay separately. Pile can feel nearly dry while the underlay is still saturated. A probe that reaches through is what tells you whether the assembly is actually drying.
Re-check the same points each visit. A drying log is only meaningful if the readings come from the same places. Mark them.
Calibration is what makes a reading evidence. If the figure may end up in a claim, a documented calibration check on the day is the difference between a measurement and an assertion.
Survey instruments are in Moisture Meters, spares in Moisture Meter Parts, the wider brand range in Dri-Eaz, and drying gear in Structural & Heat Drying.
