Structural drying is about getting moisture out of the building itself: wall cavities, timber framing, plaster, subfloors and concrete. Drying the surface isn’t enough. Moisture left inside materials leads to swelling, warping and mould.
It takes focused airflow to push air into and across those materials, and LGR dehumidifiers that keep working as the air gets drier. Our air movers cover everything from tight cavities to large open areas.
Pair centrifugal air movers for targeted drying with LGR dehumidifiers sized to the job.

1. Map the moisture
Use moisture meters to find wet walls, floors and framing, and record readings so you can track drying progress.
2. Direct the airflow
Aim centrifugal air movers at wet walls and into cavities, subfloors and under carpet. Use axial units to keep air moving through larger spaces.
3. Control the humidity
LGR dehumidifiers remove the moisture released from materials and keep humidity low so drying doesn’t stall. Check readings daily until materials are dry.
Structural drying removes moisture from the building materials themselves, such as timber framing, plaster, subfloors and concrete, after water damage. Air movers and dehumidifiers work together to bring materials back to their normal moisture levels.
Air movers create airflow over and into wet materials, and LGR dehumidifiers remove the evaporated moisture from the air. Centrifugal air movers like the TS AM15 are best for directing air into walls, subfloors and carpet.
Centrifugal air movers produce a focused, higher-pressure airstream that suits walls, carpet and cavities. Axial air movers move a larger volume of air (the TS AM20 moves 4,000 CFM), so they’re better for circulating air through large open spaces.
As materials dry, the air gets drier too, and standard refrigerant dehumidifiers slow down. LGR units keep pulling moisture out at lower humidity levels, which helps you finish the job.
Restorers often direct airflow into the cavity through small access holes or behind skirting boards, so moist air can escape while dehumidifiers keep the room dry. Centrifugal air movers suit this kind of targeted drying.
Yes. Our LGR dehumidifiers are rated to operate from 1°C to 36°C, so they keep working in cool subfloors, basements and unheated buildings.
