First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system, comprising:
- means for measuring a moisture content at a plurality of locations within a building, wherein the measured moisture content is compared with a threshold moisture content level to determine if a drying operation needs to be performed in the building;
means for substantially sealing a space of the building; and
means for drying the sealed space in order to reduce the moisture content, wherein the means for drying is entirely located within the building during the drying operation, wherein the means for drying comprises a number of drying devices, and wherein the number of drying devices is determined based, at least in part, on the measured moisture content.
