Class 1 through 4
The class of loss describes how much water the materials absorbed. It sets how many air movers and dehumidifiers a room needs and how long they run.
Concord seasons
Heated winter air indoors is dry and helps evaporation, while humid summer air slows it. LGR dehumidifiers pull that moisture out so materials keep drying.
The drying goal
IICRC S500 is the industry drying standard. Wet materials are dried until they read within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference material in the same home.

Framing, subfloor and drywall hold water after surfaces feel dry. Readings decide, so equipment stays until materials match the dry reference.
Does winter make drying faster in Concord?
Often it does. Heated indoor air in winter is dry, so it pulls water out of wet materials well, and dehumidifiers keep it that way.
Why does plaster or concrete take longer?
Plaster, masonry and concrete are dense and release water slowly. They often need LGR or desiccant dehumidifiers and more days than drywall or carpet.
Does a delay change the drying time?
Yes. Water that sits soaks deeper, and contaminated water adds removal and cleaning before drying even starts.
Is a contained loss really dry in a few days?
A contained Class 1 loss usually dries in three to five days when drying starts quickly. Bigger and denser losses take longer.
