____ drying systems merge the benefit of both open and closed drying: the use of
available dry air from outside and the control offered by a closed system and
mechanical dehumidification - ANS combination
____ is the temperature at which air becomes saturated with moisture and can hold
no more water vapor - ANS dew point
____ occurs when a solid changes to a vapor( without going through a liquid phase.)
- ANS sublimation
____ represents the "was-wood" material with the least engineering , and thus the
most natural fiber bonding. it is ___to swelling and delimitation due to its wood
veneer assemblies which are glued under extreme pressure. - ANS plywood ,
resistant
_____ occurs when liquid changes to a vapor. occurs as energy is increased -
ANS evaporation
______ is defined as the amount of moisture contained in an air sample as
compared to the maximum amount the air could hold at the temperature. - ANS
relative humidity
______is the force exerted by a gas (vapor molecules) on the surrounding
environment. - ANS vapor pressure
___. occurs when vapor changes to a liquid. occurs as energy is removed - ANS
condensation
* The label is the law" get customer briefing before starting any antimicrobial /
biocide treatment. - ANS
A balanced drying system is achieved when the rate of dehumidification is greater
than or equal to the rate of ___________. - ANS evaporation
a thermo hygrometer is used to monitor any air that can influence the ________ and
or ______ within a restorative drying environment. - ANS temperature ,
humidity (relative humidity)
Abide by local ____ and regulations when disposing extracted water. Waste water is
best disposed of into a sanitary sewer. - ANS laws
, WATER RESTORATION exam IICRC
after excess water has been extracted the time needed to dry wet materials is
determined by the - ANS rate of evaporation
After safety concerns have been addressed and the initial water source has been
stopped, the restorer must complete an evaluation of the water's migration through
the structure. During this process, the restorer inspects all ___________ ________
areas. - ANS potentially affected
air filtration device (AFDs) are needed in water restoration work whenever high
levels of ____ are being added to the air - ANS particulates
Airflow in the wall cavity increases the rate of ___________ and allows the wall to
dry from both inside and out. - ANS evaporation
All restorers should follow the standard of care for the water restoration profession
developed by the restoration industry entitled the IICRC ____. - ANS s500
As moisture evaporates from a wet material, the surface of the material becomes
______ because energy is released from the material. - ANS cooler
as the water has been extracted the time needed to dry wet material is determined
by the - ANS rate of evaporation
As the water is rapidly evaporated, the water vapor is removed by
________________ or ___________. - ANS dehumidification or ventilation
as with any contaminant mold should be removed or contained before any air
movers are placed in the structure. blowing air can spread mold spores from the
______ area to the _____ rooms - ANS contaminated , unaffected
Because desiccant dehumidifiers do not use condensation to remove water, they are
not limited by low dew point temperatures; therefore, they produce the lowest _____
________ of any dehumidifier. - ANS vapor pressure
because of their non-invasive nature and quick surveying capabilities, non-invasive
meters are the most effective tools for locating abnormal moisture behind and
beneath finishing materials such as ______ and resilient ____ floor coverings. -
ANS ceramic tile , vinyl
class 1 water intrusions involve the ____ amount of water absorption, with less than
__ % of the area surface being wet porous materials. - ANS least , 5%
