Vapor Emission Test Kit

The vapor emission test is used for determining the moisture acceptability for the placement of floor coverings and coatings over concrete slab surfaces. Using this method, users can easily quantify the volume of water vapor emitting from a 1,000 square foot concrete slab over a 24-hour period. Commonly known as the anhydrous calcium chloride vapor emission method, the test is directly specified by the vast majority of the floor covering Industry as the primary measure of moisture acceptability for floor covering or coating installations. The kit consists of a calcium chloride container, a specifically designed dome cover with seal and step-by-step instructions. A balance or scale readable to 0.1 grams is required, but must be purchased separately.
