TES (Thermal Energy System)
The World's Fastest Structural Drying System!

Drying water-damaged homes and businesses is important. But drying them fast is critical! The longer it takes to a dry a water damaged building, the more expenses and damages increase. Speed drying a water-damaged structure can eliminate or greatly reduce damages and expenses.

TES (Thermal Energy System), the latest in drying technology, dries most water damage jobs in 30 hours or less*. Conventional drying procedures (extraction, air movement, and dehumidification) typically require three to five days to dry Class 1 and Class 2 water damages. TES utilizes the "Reets Evaporation Method," which forces a high volume of heat directly to the water-saturated area, rapidly evaporating the water. The vapor is then eliminated with air evacuation/dehumidification. All this boils down to: real dry, real fast. This means less damage, and less money lost.

Advantages of TES (if used properly and setup in a timely manner):

• Dry carpet/carpet cushion in place, saving carpet cushion replacement
• Dry the walls, sill plates, and wall cavities without removing the wall boards
• Dry hardwoods, substrates, tile and concrete with non-destructive tenting
• Prevent mold, rot and decay from prolonged soaking
• Negative pressure air-flow allows inhabitants to live or work in unaffected areas of home or business
• Inconvenience and out-of-home expenses are eliminated or greatly reduced
• Drying without demolition--saves labor, hauling, replacement and repair
• It's quiet and efficient (only uses 30 to 35 amps for an average size job)

Drying structures in record time will reduce stress and inconvenience for the owner, and reduce risk and damage costs for the insurance company. The cost will be equal or less than what you are now paying for the drying cycle--with savings coming in the secondary expenses mentioned.

The TES consists of a boiler (about the size of a large oven) and 4-6 TEXs (Thermal Energy Exchangers). Due to the size of the equipment, a trailer is often optimal for mobility. To be cost-effective, the TES should be used with specialty drying situations or when water damages affect at least three rooms. However, on smaller jobs, the E-TES (Electric Thermal Energy System) can be used. The E-TES is a much smaller, more portable version of the TES. Conventional air movers and dehumidifiers still need to be used as there are situations when they are more cost-effective.

Be sure to inquire about the TES with your restoration contractors to increase your options of time and money savings.

*Most jobs, if acted upon early, are generally classified as a Class 1 or Class 2. Class 1 refers to when a minimum amount of carpet, pad and other absorbent materials are wet, maybe part of a room. Class 2 refers to when entire rooms of carpet and cushions are wet. The walls may be wet up to 24" due to wicking. Subfloors, framing lumber, concrete and other structural materials have absorbed water. For more information on categories and classes of water damage, check out the ANSI/IICRC S-500 guide here.
