Carpentersville, IL - Restoration, Mitigation and Remediation Work in Dupage County

A contractor was in the process of renovating a bathroom in a residential home and discovered large amounts of moisture in the walls and on the electrical conduit. When they looked in the attic, they discovered that the bathroom vents were not properly connected, and the rafter baffles were blocked off with insulation, not allowing proper ventilation of the attic area. It is not uncommon in the wintertime that you get large amounts of condensation on the underside of the plywood when your roof is not properly ventilated. Installed below is a HEPA air scrubber rental, used as a negative air machine rental, vented to the outdoors through a roof vent to prevent the chemical smell from entering the home. In conjunction with the 500 CFM air scrubber rental is a dehumidifier rental and fans to remove the moisture from the attic space. Please phone or email Porta-Air for your scrubber or dehumidifier.
