The world's most advanced Moisture and Relative humidity Meter for the flooring industry, the CRH measures Moisture Content by the Non-Destructive Method, Relative Humidity by the In-Situ Method (ASTM F2170) or Hood method (ASTM F2420) and Temperature and Dew Point in concrete and gypsum flooring.
Excessive moisture in concrete floor slab and screeds can lead to a host of problems in all types of floor coverings such as: adhesive degradation, delaminating of the floor covering from the slab and within itself, condensation, blistering, movement and deterioration of the covering. In the case of wood flooring, excess moisture can lead to swelling, cupping and movement of the wood which can lead to floor failure and even structural damage. Excess moisture can also lead to mold, and mildew
as well as the emission of harmful vapours. Most of these problems can be related to the floor covering being installed on a sub floor that is not sufficiently dry.
