Protimeter continues to push the boundaries of moisture detection technology with the release of the NEW Surveymaster. Featuring innovative pin and non-invasive measurement technologies, a larger display, built-in calibration check, and seamless Bluetooth integration for reporting through the Protimeter Connect app, the Surveymaster ensures that tracking moisture data is easier and more effective than ever before. 

Restoration tools and estimating can seem very overwhelming as a consumer; we give an overview of things to consider when going into the restoration process… as a consumer. 

It can be difficult to keep track of fluctuating moisture levels after a water loss.

Opinions should be based upon scientific principles and methodologies, industry standards and best practices.

Remediation after water contamination should be done fast and thoroughly. One of the main tools to use are moisture meters, which can assess the moisture condition of materials before starting remediation work. Meters should also be used to make sure all excess moisture is gone once the work is finished.

In order to have as successful drying project, one must have a complete and accurate scope of work.

Moisture meters are easier than ever to use and now with exciting Bluetooth connectivity, moisture meters offer great flexibility and customization. They are fast and accurate, and the information they provide will always be critical to making good drying decisions. Know the meter’s capabilities. Follow the manufacturers’ procedures and recommendations supported by your own knowledge and experience. 

The water damage restoration industry is changing rapidly, and moisture meters are no exception. In this article, I will focus on the changes in smart technology which are making it easier to take moisture readings and provide valuable information to contractors in real-time about their jobs.

“As many restorers are aware, heat is an element used to warm up cooler objects. The more important question is: What is heat and how can it be utilized in drying? There are three ways that heat can be transferred: Conduction, infrared radiation and convection,” Kyle Herndon writes.

The new MMS3 meter incorporates many new design features and improvements over the MMS2, and also offers Bluetooth connectivity to a mobile device.
