Injectidry

Injection drying exists to avoid demolition. Where water sits in a wall cavity, under a floating floor, behind a kickboard or above a ceiling, surface airflow will not reach it — and the usual alternative is opening the structure up.

Injectidry systems dry those spaces in place, under pressure or vacuum, which is often the difference between drying a kitchen and replacing one. That argument is as persuasive to an insurer as it is to the owner.

The range covers the HP-PLUS floor drying package and the wall and ceiling package with its active hose upgrade kit; Vac-It panels in clear, slim, extra-slim and 8-point configurations; Direct-It universal air mover adapters in standard and axial with the UAA2 head; wall injectors and 5/8 inch wall penetrators; the Interceptor inline HEPA filtering system and water separator; the Protect-It dehumidifier drip pan; blank hose line, push-to-connect end caps, nipple caps and a rolling duffel bag.

How to choose

Positive and negative pressure do different jobs. Pushing air into a cavity moves moisture out through the building; drawing it out with Vac-It panels contains what comes with it. On a contaminated loss, containment usually decides which you use.

Panel size follows the assembly, not the room. Slim and extra-slim panels exist for narrow bays and toe kicks. A panel that will not seat against the substrate is not drying anything.

Adapters make an air mover do a second job. Direct-It turns a standard or axial mover into a cavity feed. The two adapters are different parts — check which mover you have.

Filter the return on dirty losses. The Interceptor and water separator keep debris and moisture out of the system on Category 2 and 3 work. Skipping them shortens the life of the equipment.
