Why does moisture testing matter? Moisture testing matters because it can help you detect, and thus avoid, moisture issues that could damage your floors. Moisture has a considerable impact on flooring—especially wood floors. Fluctuations in moisture levels can cause flooring materials to: • Warp—cup, buckle, shrink, or swell • Crack • Peel • Weaken due to delamination • Loosen due to adhesive failure • Develop mold or mildew Imagine how your clients might feel to see these issues in the floors they paid you to install. They might be frustrated and disappointed—and hesitant to work with you again. Or worse, they could spread word of their dissatisfaction to other potential customers. Besides damaging your reputation, moisture damage in flooring could lead to other losses as well. Clients may demand refunds or repairs, which will cost you time and money. Want to avoid all of these headaches? The solution is simple—start carefully monitoring the moisture of your floors. With our trusty trio of moisture monitoring tools, you’ll be able to avoid moisture issues and keep your client’s floors in good shape for years to come.

All you have to do is press the sensor pad on the back of the meter against your concrete to get a surface moisture reading. This will help you locate high-moisture areas within your subfloor surface. By being aware of high-moisture areas, you’ll know not to install floor coverings until the subfloor’s surface moisture issues have been resolved.
Surface moisture? Not on your watch. The C555 Concrete Moisture Meter helps you locate high- moisture areas on concrete subfloors so you can resolve issues before installation begins. Protect your floors with precision!
