How the numbers are worked out
Drying time depends mostly on the material and how saturated it is. Tile and slab give up water fastest, drywall and framing take longer, and hardwood, subfloor and plaster are the slowest. Mid-South summers are humid, so the dehumidifiers, not open windows, do the work of pulling moisture out of the air.
The drying goal is a measured one: wet material within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference, confirmed by daily readings. See structural drying for how the equipment is set, or crawl space water removal when the water is under the floor.
