Why heat drying is essential
After water extraction, it’s critical to fully dry the property to prevent further issues like mould growth and structural damage. Heat drying is a highly effective method for deep structural drying, especially for hard-to-reach areas in timber, concrete, and insulation materials. It speeds up the drying process, reduces downtime, and fully restores your property to safe living or working conditions.

The latest heat drying technology
Heat drying technology has brought significant advancements to the water damage restoration Industry. This new technology allows us to dry our customers’ water-damaged properties in Adelaide much faster and much more effectively. This is important as the faster we can dry water damage, the less chance there is for mould to set in. The theory behind heat drying is quite simple: As we heat up the wet materials, we increase the evaporation rate of the affected materials. The faster we can evaporate the moisture, the faster the materials will dry.
Extremely effective for structural drying
Heat is extremely effective for drying structural materials and materials that have bound moisture within them. Drying concrete, timber wall frames, and hard structural materials can sometimes be difficult with conventional drying methods. However, once heat drying is introduced, the moisture begins to evaporate out of these materials. With the introduction of heat drying, we can now dry many materials that, in the past, we may have had to remove. This saves our customers both time and money.
Getting our customer lives back to normal much faster
Recover from disaster much faster, we can now help our customers to recover and get their lives back to normal much faster. Heat drying is not just faster but it’s also less invasive, meaning we can get our customers’ homes back to normal much faster and with far less disruption.
Combination drying
Conventional drying with dehumidification and airflow is still an excellent drying method, and in many cases, we combine the two drying methods to produce fantastic drying results for our customers. The addition of heat helps the conventional dehumidifiers to work more effectively, and in turn, the heat generated from the dehumidifiers helps with the heat drying process. The two systems work perfectively together providing another versatile drying option for our valued customers.
Flood Fixers has mastered the revolutionary new heat drying system, which allows us to dry our customers’ water damage faster and more efficiently.

Step 4
Air circulation
We combine heat drying with advanced air circulation systems to speed up moisture evaporation from affected areas.
Step 5
Post-drying inspection
After drying is complete, we perform a detailed inspection to ensure your property is fully dry and safe from mould growth or structural issues.
What are the advantages of heat drying over traditional methods
Heat drying provides several unique advantages over traditional drying methods, ensuring faster and more effective restoration. Here’s why heat drying is the best option for your property:
Faster drying times
The additional heat evaporates the moisture out of the wet materials faster than conventional drying.
Reduced risk for mould
The faster we can dry a water-damaged property, the less chance there is for mould to set in.
Versatility
Heat drying gives the restorer more drying options and can be combined with conventional drying to produce fantastic drying results.
Effective for hard materials
Extremely effective for drying structures and bound moisture in hard materials like timber and concrete.
Effective in colder months
It is very effective in winter and colder months when conventional drying methods struggle due to low temperatures.
Less noisy
Heat drying is less noisy than conventional drying methods, as the noise from airflow is muffled inside the drying mats.
Faster restoration
Heat drying allows us to restore our customers’ lives much faster after a water damage disaster.
When do you need heat drying services?
Flood Fixers provides heat drying services for various water damage situations where fast and effective drying is essential to prevent further damage. Here are some common scenarios where heat drying is the best solution.
Flooding from heavy rain or storms
After severe water exposure, heat drying quickly removes moisture from structural materials like floors, walls, and insulation.
Burst pipes or plumbing issues
When water soaks into hard-to-dry areas like timber and concrete, heat drying ensures deep, thorough drying.
Persistent moisture
If traditional drying methods fail to remove all moisture, heat drying can target deeply embedded water in hard-to-reach areas.
High humidity environments
High humidity or poor air circulation properties benefit from heat drying to eliminate excess moisture and prevent mould growth.
Mould prevention
Heat drying is crucial for drying areas at risk of mould development due to trapped moisture or long-term exposure to water.
Is heat drying suitable for every water damage job?
The simple answer is no. Heat drying is a great tool, and we often use it in its entirety as well as in combination with conventional drying; however, it is not required or suitable for every job. Our water damage restoration technicians are highly trained and very experienced in heat drying technology and know exactly when and where to utilise this amazing new technology.
