PLASTER (COMPARATIVE)
SCALE 4
a. The Moisture Encounter 5 will help identify the dif-
ferent levels of moisture, even if not apparent on the
surface. Moisture can often be trapped behind the
wall coverings.
b. Rising damp and moisture migration from leaks and
defective, or non-existent, vapor barriers can be
identified and profiled and often its source identi-
fied.
c. Water damage following flooding or firefighting can
be checked and drying out and de-humidification
process can be monitored.
TILE (COMPARATIVE)
SCALE 4
The Moisture Encounter 5 Tile scale can be used detect el-
evated moisture conditions within and behind most types
of tile including ceramic and porcelain. Excess moisture
trapped behind covering materials such as tiles can cause
major problems like decay, delamination and mold growth.
The longer these problems go undetected, the worse the
problem can get eventually leading to system failure.
