The first question you need to ask yourself is do you really want to buy a flood damage document freeze dryer? There are numerous companies that specialize in flood damage freeze drying and if you are not familiar with the process this may be something you should leave to the professionals. However, if you are intent on purchasing a flood damage freeze dryer yourself there are quite a few available that will fit into an office space or building and enable you to freeze dry your work as you go.
Even if your documents are not damaged when they are completed, moisture in the air clings to paper and the air conditioning in your building can add to that. If you complete a project, freeze dry it, and then store it correctly, that document can last life times. A friend of mine suggested this to me and it sounded like darned good flood damage advice to me. Indeed, why leave the fate of important project papers to chance and the weather, when you can safeguard them and preserve them for long, long years to come? So let's check out some good flood damage document freeze dryers here that you can try out if you ever have flood damage.
The Lab Series Freeze Dryer is one flood damage document freeze dryer that is easy to use and not much bigger than a washing machine. (It kind of looks like a washing machine also). This is also on wheels, which makes it convenient to move from one place to the next. This dryer does not get to the recommended -40 Celsius, but if you are freeze drying your documents to preserve them before they are damaged, it doesn't need to be that cold. The recommended temperatures are for flood damage documents that are saturated with water already. The -48 temperature should be just fine to keep your papers dry and preserved.
A bigger, heavier duty flood damage document freeze dryer is the Production Freeze Dryer. This bad boy will need a room of his own. The shelf area inside this one is up to 300 feet, so the basement might be a good place for it. This would be a good option if the company you are working for produces mass amounts of paper work and this could be used weekly.
There are many more options available for flood damage document freeze dryers and what you choose depends on your company and its needs. A large dryer is good for large loads of flood damage documents. A smaller dryer is good for fewer flood damage documents. Keep in mind though both dryers need time to do their job and this is not something you can drop documents into and come back after twenty minutes. If you go this route, you should hire someone whose sole job is to process flood damage documents through the freeze dryer. Once there is a rotation schedule going, it will be easy to maintain and your flood damage documents will be preserved for a long time to come.
