FLOORING MOISTURE METERS FOR TESTING CONCRETE, CEMENTITIOUS SCREEDS & WOOD

For concrete and cementitious screeds to receive a floor covering the base must be suitably “dry enough” to prevent damage to the flooring material and to ensure a proper bond with adhesives.

Water is a vital component in the manufacture of concrete and the concrete must be kept moist during the critical curing phase to ensure the intended concrete strength.

However excess moisture in the substrate is the most common cause of floor failures, costing billions annually and causing major disruption to home and business owners.

Testing concrete and screeds for moisture is simple using Tramex unique combination system which provides a comprehensive overview and gives the flooring installer peace of mind.
