    Common Water Restoration Questions, Answered

    The concepts WRT candidates and working techs ask about most — categories, classes, drying math, and the field decisions that separate a clean job from a callback. Categories and Classes are defined in the ANSI/IICRC S500; our plain-English guide to the S500 explains the standard concept by concept.

    Water Categories 1, 2 & 3

    Category describes how contaminated the water is, from clean supply-line water through significantly contaminated discharge to heavily contaminated sewage and flood water. It drives PPE, whether porous materials come out, and how the file is written.

    Read the Categories guide

    Class of Water Loss

    Class describes evaporation load, not contamination — how much wet material there is and how readily it releases moisture. Low-permeance assemblies such as hardwood, plaster and masonry sit at the specialty end and change the drying plan.

    Air Movers & Dehumidifier Sizing

    Air movers sweep air across wet surfaces at a shallow angle, spaced around the perimeter and turned into corners, so the goal is coverage of wet material rather than machine count. Dehumidification is sized from the volume of the drying chamber and the load factor for the Class of loss, using rated capacity — undersizing is what leaves secondary damage behind after the equipment goes out.

    Psychrometry & GPP

    Grains per pound tells you how much moisture the air is actually carrying, which is what decides whether evaporation continues. Compare the chamber against unaffected air and against outside air before changing anything.

    Documentation that Holds Up

    Daily moisture readings, photos of every affected area, equipment placed and removed, and a clear scope are what make a file defensible. The standard treats documentation as the basis for the restorer's decisions.
