How to get rid of Mildew in your basement?

The first thing to consider is where the problem is coming from. Narrowing in on the source will help you develop a plan to eradicate or control the amount of moisture in your basement. If you have a consistent leak or seepage coming through your basement wall, you may want to contact a Water Damage or Leak Professional who can assist you in determining how the Water is coming from the Outside of your house into your basement. Most basements do have some moisture and poor air circulation which leads to Mildew and that "Musty" Basement smell we all hate and loath.

We recommend 1 Dri-Z-Air Unit for every 10 X 10 space you are trying to protect. We also recommend placing several units in your basement at varying heights so you can maximize the benefits Dri-Z-Air offers.

You can apply the same methodology to ANY room you are trying to protect. Dri-Z-Air helps reduce the Mildew in your basement by removing excess moisture from the air. If you have a consistent leak that is causing the Mildew, you should consult a Professional to assist you in correcting the problem. Dri-Z-Air works great for most basements that do not have a major water leak or problem.

If you have a moist or musty basement, our products can help you maintain the moisture in the air to a suitable level.

My Boat has bad breath, what should I do?

How do I remove that Musty Smell from my Carpet?

First you need to determine whether or not you have a leak that is causing the moisture to build up in a certain area. Fix the leak first! If you have Pets, you may have an entirely different problem. Pet Stains almost always have an ammonia smell associated with them. If this isn't your case, you may have a house that doesn't "breath" well, that is, excess moisture is having a tough time exiting your house so it collects in certain points of a room. Dri-Z-Air can help by reducing the amount of excess moisture from the air. Excess moisture is one of the reasons a house or room can smell "Musty". Dri-Z-Air is an inexpensive choice to the more expensive, mechanical dehumidifiers. Dri-Z-Air will remove excess moisture which should clear up that "Musty" smell you've been experiencing. Depending on the size of your room, we recommend 1 Dri-Z-Air unit for every 10x10 space you are trying to protect. You can experiment with several units (They are refillable and you only have to buy the unit once). Place several units at varying heights for maximum efficiency. You'll be surprised after finding water in the bucket after a couple of days.

How does Dri-Z-Air Remove Moisture from the Air?

The Dri-Z-Air Unit was designed for air to circulate around the entire basket which contains Crystals that absorb excess moisture from the air. This patented design works better than most competitive products and needs little maintenance or monitoring. It's odorless, non-flammable, and Non-Electric. Because the process is gradual, excess moisture is slowly removed from the environment. During the first week of use, you will notice little droplets of water in the bucket, the second week, more water will be present until the 3rd or 4th week when you will notice a significant amount of water in the bucket. Once the Crystals are gone, empty the bucket and re-supply the basket with a new bag of Crystals. If your bucket fills in less than 3 weeks, add another unit to the room to balance out the collection of moisture (You may have more moisture in the room than one unit can handle.) All Units come with one 13 ounce package of refill crystals. If you run out of Crystals, you can order more from our online store.

Why use Dri-Z-Air instead of an Electric Dehumidifier?

Most likely, the reason you are here is a result of a moisture problem. Dri-Z-Air costs much less than an electric dehumidifying device and is a sensible alternative to purchasing a full blown electric dehumidifier for your house, RV, Crawlspace or Boat. Dri-Z-Air was designed for smaller, enclosed spaces that have excess moisture in them. With that in mind, you will want to focus your application of Dri-Z-Air in areas that are smaller in your home like your Closet, Attic, Under the stairs etc. If your trying to Dehumidify a 1,500 sqaure foot home, you will need a full blown electric dehumidifier to do the job adequately. If you are trying to dehumidify one or two rooms, a Boat, RV, or Trailer, Dri-Z-Air is an excellent choice. You will need to purchase 1 Dri-Z-Air unit for every 10 x 10 space you are trying to protect.

How do I clean up if some of the liquid spills?

To clean up a spill, use plain cold water only. If the liquid spills on a carpet, the manufacture reccomends you use a Wet/Dry Vaccum and Vaccum up all the spills you can. Then soak the spot with cold water and vaccum it up. Repeat this procedure several times to dilute the solution. Let the carpet dry and if it stays dry, the spill has been cleaned up. If it gets damp again, repeat the procedure.

DRIERITE will not corrode any metal. We do not reccomend using Dri-Z-Air products inside tool boxes as there is the chance that the liquid will spill and cause corrosion. This does not happen with DRIERITE Dessiccant bags.
