How this tool works
Drying time depends mostly on the material and how saturated it is. Tile over slab gives up surface water quickly, drywall and framing take longer, and dense materials such as hardwood, plaster and a soaked concrete slab are Class 4 materials that hold water deep inside. Larger areas and a house without working AC add time, because St. Petersburg air is humid most of the year.
These are typical ranges with professional air movers and LGR dehumidifiers running continuously. The drying goal is not a date: equipment leaves when wet materials read within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference material. See structural drying for how that works.
