The Four KNOW'S of Drying

The Four "Knows of Drying"

Four question that Summarize the information that must be obtained , documented and evaluated throughout the restorative drying process.  When left unanswered, these questions are the source of the most common deficiencies in inspection and documentation.  The four key questions, or "knows," of dying are:

1. What's wet?
2. How wet is it?
3. Is it drying?
4. Is it done? 

Only through insepection, monitoring and documentation will answer these four questions.  A gap in this process will result in improper dryin, addional water damage, and compromised structual cleaniness and intergrity. Proper instruments and tools are a key ingredient to successful completion of the drying process.
