Testing Drywall user guide

Encounter Plus can identify excess moisture within and
behind drywall. It can also identify excess moisture be-
hind ceramic tile and other wall coverings. As calibration
is not practical on this type of construction, readings
should be taken from the comparative scale (0 to 100)
on the meter dial.
Testing on ceramic tiles and other wall and floor
coverings
Your Moisture Encounter Plus can be used to detect and
identify areas of elevated moisture within or behind
most types of wall and floor coverings. For example the
