Does KDT provide commercial dehumidifiers and drying equipment?
Commercial Dehumidifiers & Drying Equipment
Yes.
KDT provides commercial dehumidifiers, air movers and structural drying equipment after hurricanes and floods, delivered with the power to run them and set up by crews who track moisture until the building is dry.
Typical configuration
- LGR dehumidifiers
- About 70–200 pints/day (AHAM rated), 115 V, roughly 6–10 A each
- Desiccant units
- Trailer-mounted, about 1,000–10,000+ CFM, for large or cold buildings
- Air movers
- Axial and centrifugal, about 1,000–3,000 CFM each
- Monitoring
- Moisture meters, thermo-hygrometers, thermal imaging, daily logs
- Power
- 120 V for LGR units and air movers; generator power for desiccant trailers
- Duration
- Usually several days per structure, longer for dense materials
After a flood or hurricane, water that isn't pulled out of a building in the first few days turns into mold, ruined drywall and failed floors. Drying is the step between water extraction and rebuilding. KDT supplies the equipment and the crews: low-grain refrigerant (LGR) dehumidifiers for rooms and small buildings, trailer-mounted desiccant dehumidifiers for large or cold structures, and air movers that push air across wet walls and floors.
The plan follows the building. We map moisture, set air movers along wet walls, size dehumidification to the volume, close up the space and take readings every day until materials reach dry targets. Large desiccant units run on generator power, so we bring that too when the grid is down.
We start with the buildings the response needs back fast, such as shelters, schools, clinics, EOCs and critical facilities, then work through whatever else is in scope, following standard water-damage restoration practice and keeping the records adjusters and grant programs ask for.

Questions, answered.
Does KDT provide commercial dehumidifiers and drying equipment?
Yes. We supply LGR and desiccant dehumidifiers and air movers after hurricanes and floods, set them up, power them and monitor each building until it's dry.
What's the difference between LGR and desiccant dehumidifiers?
LGR refrigerant units work best in warm rooms and small to mid-size spaces. Desiccant units keep pulling water in cool or very large spaces and can dry a whole building through ducting. Big jobs often use both.
How long does structural drying take?
Usually several days per structure, depending on how wet it got, the materials and the weather. We take moisture readings daily and keep equipment running until materials reach dry targets.
Do you document drying for insurance or grant programs?
Yes. We keep daily moisture readings, equipment logs and photos for each structure, which is the record adjusters and assistance programs typically ask for.
