3. Combination- using outdoor air combined with mechanical dehumidification
If open drying is determined appropriate, the following options are available to
the restorer: - correct-answer-1. Using ventilation
2. Opening windows
3. Install fans to create pressure differentials and air exchanges
___________ drying systems merge the benefits 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. - correct-answer-Combination
