Xpower X400

Our Xpower X400 will get the air moving in your wet or flooded area for rapid drying. An air mover will move the air around at up to 1600 cubic feet per minute (cfm). This simulates very strong ventilation in your wet or flooded area. Use the air blower (also known as a carpet fan) in conjunction with our commercial grade dehumidifier and your area will be dry in no time.

Our Xpower X400 is often called a ‘snail fan’ due to its shape. It has 3 different speeds and can be angled in different directions, depending on where the moisture can be found. If you have wet flooring, leave the fan flat on its base so the air can blow straight across the floor or carpet. Use this angle also if the moisture has only just started to wick up the walls. Pointing the fan at the wall. If the water has wicked further up the walls,  tilt the fan on to a 45 degree angle so the air blows further up the wall. The fan can also be placed on its back so the air can blow directly towards the ceiling.

If you have lifted the carpet, you can place this fan underneath in order to dry both the underlay and the under side of the carpet.

Safety

The carpet fan is electrical equipment so do not place it directly on a flooded surface. Accordingly, bulk of the water must be extracted first so that the area prior to placement of drying equipment is only damp. Raise any electrical cords off the damp area.

More Information

The air mover (blower) and the dehumidifier work as a well-oiled team. The air blower will first take the moisture out of the carpet and leave it in the air. The dehumidifier will then remove the moisture from the air.
