Preparing Walls, Cabinets and other As-
semblies for Drying
Walls
Wall drying using an inter-air drying system can be accom-
plished with or without baseboards present. After inspect-
ing walls, insulation, and baseboards, and after evaluating
paint finish considerations, proceed in the manner that de-
livers the most value to the customer.
Remove baseboard or cove base. First, use a razor knife to
score along the top of the base where it meets the wall, to
reduce damage to the painted surfaces and make a profes-
sional re-installation easier. When prying base away from

stud finder can be used to locate studs and find the
center of the cavity.
Larger holes are more time-consuming to patch, and may
decrease efficiency by leaking air. Try to reduce the need
for later repairs by placing the holes behind the rubber
wainscoting or cove base, or behind trim that is easily rein-
stalled over the holes.
Steel Studs
Steel studs are common in commercial buildings. They are
set in a channel that can hold large volumes of water. To
access these areas, drill holes approximately ½ inch from
The DriForce and the Air Drying System can deliver air to struc-
tural cavities in walls, ceilings, under and above cabinets, and
many other areas.
The ADS connects to the DriForce blower outlet and attaches
to a manifold with a standard hose cuff. Supply tubes run from
the manifold to injectors that are inserted into a wall or other
structural cavity.
