Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Coquitlam

Burke Mountain's uphill wall stays cool where the house cuts into the slope. The bottom plate at that wall is the slow wood. We open the cavity, aim air movers along it, and set an LGR so grain depression reaches that side of the room.

Pins in the plate and a pinless pass on the concrete go on the grain log every morning with the grains. Wood should close matching the closet plate we marked as a control in the house and hold overnight. The wall reading is the one that releases the machines.

Westwood Plateau concrete on the buried side stays cool and wet after the window-well water is gone. Air movers belong on that wall, and the LGR belongs where it can keep a depression against the chill. Ranch Park rooms with the same slope get the same layout.

Daily grids and plate pins fill the grain log. Concrete should settle toward a drier patch of the pour and hold a day. Plates should sit near a dry standard from the house. If outlet grains creep back up toward the inlet, the unit is losing the wall and we reset it.

Maillardville basements are older, block or concrete, and cool at the footing. The bottom plate is the slow wood. Air goes low along that plate, and an LGR runs until the grains show a real drop. Austin Heights houses of that age get the same aim.

The grain log takes a plate pin every morning and a pinless line on the slab. Wood closes within a few points of dry framing in that house, stable overnight. Slab squares have to stop falling as well. We leave the cavity open until both lines agree.

Central Coquitlam footing lines stay damp at the base of older walls. Ranch Park adds slope and a cooler uphill face. We meter the plate and the concrete above the floor, and movers aim at that wet face. The LGR sits close enough to keep grains falling there.

Grain depression, plate moisture, and a short slab grid share the grain log each day. Targets are a dry plate from the house and a quieter patch of slab. Both hold overnight or the equipment stays. A weak depression sends us back to the LGR placement.
