Definition
Built-In Components: Permanent built-in finished cabinetry, including but not limited to: counters, shelves, desks, drawers, pantries, storage closets, hutches and bay-window seats. Mitigation Note: Built-in finished components are usually not effected by most water damages, since inspection and dehumidification drying, if necessary, can be conducted through the removal of the toe-kick, core drilling into the toe-kick, or drilling behind the base molding. If the built-in component is attached to an interior wall, drying the underside of the built-in can be completed by drilling air and dehumidification holes from the opposite wall, behind the frame work of built-in component. See Wall Drying Systems
Wall, Ceiling and Floor Drying Systems: A mechanical dehumidification and engineering control method employed to dry wet walls, ceilings and floors, wall cavities and built-in components in place, in a relatively short period of time, with little or no damage to the finished materials. See Injectidry, TurboVent, Wallintruder.
