Damp Check's super absorbent formula absorbs excess moisture (humidity) from the air. Excess moisture creates an environment that can lead to problems such as damp, musty odors, rust, mildew and mold. Closets, bathrooms and basements are very susceptible to humidity problems. Lowering the moisture level eliminates the moist environment that contributes to these problems. A typical home has several gallons of water trapped in the upholstered furniture alone.

DAMP CHECK's active ingredient is a basic salt form which is odorless, non-toxic and therefore poses minimal risk to children or pets. As with any salt form, it is an irritant, so be careful not to get any particles or solution in your eyes. Because it does not produce any odors or vapors it will not affect sensitive respiratory systems.

That depends. Heat, moisture (humidity) levels and size of area being protected are the keys. In cooler weather the humidity level drops and the absorption rate slows down. In warmer weather or rainy seasons, the humidity increases and the absorption rate speeds up. It also depends on how large an area is. In small confined areas without much air flow, the unit can last for several months. In larger spaces, the unit will normally last several weeks to a month.

Absolutely. DAMP CHECK Moisture Absorber units are designed to be refilled and reused many times. Economical DAMP CHECK refills are available in three different sizes (12 oz, 48 oz, and 64 oz). Unopened refill packets have an unlimited shelf life and will be fresh and ready to use when opened. For maximum effectiveness, refill the unit before all the pellets have dissolved. Not really.

Do not install compact fluorescent lights where they will be exposed to water or snow directly. You can install compact fluorescent lights in sheltered exterior places. Some compact fluorescent lights have ventilation holes to keep them cool. Do not install that type of compact fluorescent light where moisture or water can get in the holes.

Using the principle of electrical resistance, pin-type meters use the board as an element in a circuit by driving two pins or electrodes into it. This method works because moisture conducts electricity well and dry wood is an effective insulator. Most pinless meters use the capacitance method, which uses the relationship between the moisture content and the dielectric properties of the wood.

Using your own keys provides identity verification. When a contact receives your public key, he or she knows it is you; an imposter wouldn't be able to use your public key because they don't have your private key. Your contacts do not have to be Plus users to be able to save, view and verify your keys, nor do they have to be Plus users in order to enjoy the higher encryption when speaking with you.

Unlike traditional air fresheners that only mask odors with a fragrance that lasts only a few days, DAMP CHECK Air Freshener Disc and DAMP CHECK Auto Air Freshener Disc have a unique, non-fragranced formula that absorbs and eliminates most any odor and leaves the protected area clean and fresh smelling for months. In smaller confined spaces, they can last even up to a year. They are ideal for use almost anywhere as they do not leave a residual odor on clothes, furniture or stored items.

The moisture analyzer consists of two important components; a balance and a heater. The sample is placed in the moisture analyzer and the balance captures the initial weight. An infrared energy heater is used to heat the sample. During the test the balance records the weight. When the sample no longer loses weight the instrument shuts off the heat and uses the final weight to calculate moisture.

That depends on the size of the area to be protected and what size DAMP CHECK moisture absorber you are using. Use one 12 oz absorber for a small closet. Use two or more for a walk-in closet. If using our 16 oz Dome or 36 oz Room Size, use one per closet and up to four for a large room or basement. A good rule of thumb is one or two per 100 square feet. If the units are empty in 3 weeks or less, add another unit.

The third prong on a three-prong cord set provides a ground path to your circuit breaker or fuses that can detect if electricity is straying or leaking from a product. This helps protect equipment and can help prevent electric shock.

A polarized plug is a plug with one large or wide prong and one narrow one. It ensures that the plug is inserted correctly in a socket and reduces the risk of electrical shock.

Each Thermophore unit has a specially woven fleece blend cover. During storage, this cover traps moisture from the atmosphere in the air spaces between the textile strands. When the special safety switch is activated, the Thermophore pack becomes intensely hot very quickly. Through a hygroscopic action, the moisture moves away from the source heat to the cooler body tissue.

To install an EPDM roof, ideally the temperature needs to be + 5 Deg C, and the weather needs to be dry.

Moisture Testing: APC Adhesive requires the use of moisture tests on all concrete and wood subfloors. Subfloor moisture percentages should not exceed the flooring manufacturer’s or APC Adhesive recommendations, whichever is lowest. If excessive moisture is present, use an appropriate vapor barrier. The Calcium Chloride test measures moisture emission in concrete. The maximum level when installing cork flooring is 4 pounds per 1,000 square feet over 24 hours.
