Eliminator Foundation Vent Fans were installed in homes
with high wood moisture content in the 28% to 30%
range. Over a thirty day period, the moisture content was
measured at weekly intervals. Homes with the Eliminator
installed saw a reduction of moisture levels to as low as
16% and 17%. A wood moisture level of 20% or less is
considered ideal. Homes without the Eliminator showed no
reduction in moisture content.
“The Eliminator performed well, even under severe moisture
problem conditions… the amount of air moved is sufficient to
correct the problems present.”
