Description

DO YOU BELIEVE EXCEPTIONAL DRYING RESULTS START WITH SCIENTIFICALLY SOUND UNDERSTANDINGS?

Of course you do Drying success is not solely the result of the tool you buy or the certificate on your wall. A drying god emerges when they apply the physics that drive water to change phase from a solid or liquid to a gas and understand how to assess, manipulate and control the water molecule - regardless of its phase.

However, over the course of 3 decades, compromises in accuracy and agenda driven messages have found their way into some formal education programs and even the industry Standards. These compromises and flawed messages are well documented, yet they are persistently taught as fact to the innocent students and even the consuming public and insurance representatives.

Leadership in Restorative Drying is the first comprehensive resource guide to clearly identify several of the scientific errors that permeate the structural restorative drying industry, and substitute it with easy to understand explanations and descriptions. What results? Leaders in restorative drying services are able to engineer an effective drying protocol that accommodates ALL drying strategies - refrigerant dehumidification, desiccant dehumidification, heaters, air movement / exchange... why - even the choice to open a window. It's not the tool that dries the structure... it's the restorer's skill in the use of their tools.

Courageous leaders are invited to read this book. Stand up and be identified as a bearer of accurate information.

Lead in your marketplace.

- What REALLY dictates the rate of evaporation? (You may be surprised )

- Do you have a drying plan that defines your daily drying objectives in your drying strategy?

- Drying is not entirely about psychrometry (Does that make you a heretic?)

- Scientific principles and formulas that dictate how much air movement you need. (This WILL surprise you )

- What's the trick to drying dense materials like wood and concrete? (It's not a specific tool)

- Multi-million dollar drying jobs. How are they managed?

*NEW: Be ready for the new ideas described in the next edition of the ANSI / IICRC S500 Standard and Reference Guide to Professional Water Damage Restoration. Many are considered within this book.

*NEW An education road-map that creates a solid career and a loyal employee.

*NEW: How is restorative drying leadership developed? (Competence is not defined solely by speed )

*NEW: Psychrometry is now explained with vastly improved visual aids

*NEW: Have you heard about "triple point?" (It's the key to vacuum freeze drying success)

*NEW: Heat drying strategies and accountabilities. (Have you considered all your risks?)

*NEW: Does "more" equipment/energy] always produce faster drying? (Not according to the studies out there.)

*NEW: Can you show your customer how a desiccant can sometimes] be a more cost effective approach to drying than an LGR?

*NEW: There is an industry that is up to ten times larger than insurance related drying - and they need your skills
