Flooring
The moisture meters featured below were designed specifically to meet the needs of the flooring contractor. Key reasons to use a moisture meter for flooring are:

  • Detect if there is continuous moisture migration toward the surface
  • Test surface and mid-section of concrete slabs
  • Reduce chances of excess moisture in wood floors and sub-floors
  • Identify potential for delamination in synthetic floors

Our 26-ES electrode with insulated pins lets you check moisture below a floor covering before and after installation. And with our expanded offering that includes TechCheck, TotalCheck and MoistureCheck, it is even easier to choose a meter that will give you the superior value and high degree of accuracy and reliability you have come to expect from Delmhorst.

Delmhorst’s TotalCheck three-in-one meter offers scan and pin moisture modes and a thermo-hygrometer that measures ambient Temperature and RH and calculates Dew point and GPP. Relative Humidity is a crucial factor to consider when installing a floor over a concrete sub floor. The RH sensor of TotalCheck is removable and conforms to the ASTM F-2170 standard to determine if concrete floors have dried adequately before installing a floor covering.
