The use of controlled heat on water damage and construction projects has always been considered an advantage. The DRYAIR system not only provides large volumes of hot air. It also provides heat where you want it; how you want it and at the temperature you want, without introducing additional moisture or toxic carbon monoxide fumes.
With the heat exchangers placed upto 500 ft away from the base heater, you can be sure that the working environment is safe and free from gases, and also that optimum levels of heat are efficiently transferred to the work area.
Using pressurised air the Dryair “moisture flush process” offers the most cost effective way of drying both air and materials on water damage and construction projects.
Using our data-management control system an operator can remotely monitor the drying process 24 hours/day throughout the project.
Clients can view every aspect of the heating or drying process even when you are not on site. The data-logging system produces real-time reports to allow you to look back over the your project minute by minute.
In this way you can be sure that the drying or heating process is achieved within the criteria you require for your project.
The Dryair system will automatically notify you when set criteria have been met i.e. RH reduced to a specific level, and you can receive e-mail or text up-dates to inform you of the current status of each project.
Other advantages of the DRYAIR system are that it:
- produces no naked flames
- no fumes and no air contamination
- a safe, eco-friendly drying process for all situations
DRYAIR UK has commissioned independent testing of its dry heat system by the CIM unit of the Sheffield Hallam University. The results of the tests clearly show how effective the DRYAIR system is in the use of high temperature and RH controls in the heating and drying of structures.
The tests have been independently undertaken and validated by Professor Paul Lambert of Mott MacDonald consulting engineers and visiting Professor to Sheffield Hallam University - Centre for Infrastructure Management
The test results show clearly that the managed use of hot air has no secondary, detrimental effect on a whole range of building materials.

Moisture Removal in the Corrosions & Coatings Industries
The corrosions & coatings industries are two sectors, where manufacturers, surveyors, consultants & contractors have sought to improve the performance and durability of materials and their application on construction projects.
The ability to apply coatings - paint, resin and adhesive - in environments where temperature, moisture and RH are outside the manufacturers’ specifications has often remained an obstacle to achieving satisfactory levels of performance. Contractors across Europe have informed Dryair of the numerous instances that have arisen, which have resulted in extensive periods of downtime, delays or the regular failure of products through the lack of ability to control either temperature, RH or dew point.
The Dryair system, used for many years to remove moisture from work areas of high RH, is a perfect solution for the coatings industry, offering on- & off-site monitoring of the drying process, in addition to real-time data recording of all aspects of the system’s operations. This is ideal for project managers, surveyors and other parties concerned.
The results can bring significant cost benefits to all parties concerned:
- downtime is virtually eliminated;
- greater adhesion and therefore less risk of coatings failure;
- temperature & RH are brought under control, where you want them, when you want them and for the period of time you require them;
- Dew point can be measured and compensated for;
- no naked flames and no noxious gases or contaminants within the area of operation;
- improved health and safety in the work environment.
