TL;DR
A moisture map is the floor-plan diagram a restoration technician draws of a water-damaged area, marking meter readings on walls, floors, and ceilings to define exactly where materials are wet. Updated daily as drying equipment runs, it documents progress toward dry standard and justifies every day of equipment rental to the insurance carrier.
What it means
A moisture map is the floor-plan diagram a restoration technician draws of a water-damaged area, marking meter readings on walls, floors, and ceilings to define exactly where materials are wet. Updated daily as drying equipment runs, it documents progress toward dry standard and justifies every day of equipment rental to the insurance carrier. The closing map showing readings at or near unaffected reference values is what proves the structure is dry.
