Knowing how to dry wet damp carpet is key to saving a flooded basement carpet. Thorough water removal and extraction is followed up by floating the carpets and the pad to remove all moisture. Quick drying prevents damp carpet smell odor and mold damage that is tough to remove or clean out. We have many different carpet extraction tools that can be used to remove almost all the water from the flooded carpet. There is very little moisture left in the damp carpet or pad after extraction. Airmovers and dehumidifiers are set up to remove the last bit of moisture to complete the dry out. For even faster drying we can use special heaters to make the dehumidifers work more effeciently.
The water also wicks into the walls, and these will need to be dried out. The walls are where hidden mold is usually found. Knowing how to dry out wet walls and carpet fast is the best way to prevent mold damage.

@Propertyexit We did not own one at the time. It would also have been overkill on this water damage. The wet carpet in the adjoining room had already been removed. The phoenix dehumidifier was also drying other rooms at the same time. The only added drying equipment was one air mover. Thank you for the comment.
