Your cart is empty. Calcium Chloride Test Method (ASTM F 1869)
The Calcium Chloride Test Method, as outlined in ASTM F 1869, is the industry standard for measuring the Moisture Vapor Emission Rate (MVER) of concrete subfloors using anhydrous calcium chloride. This method provides a quantitative measurement that aligns with the requirements set by flooring manufacturers.
It's important to note that the measurement obtained from the Calcium Chloride Test reflects the current condition of the concrete at the time of testing. The results will indicate the amount of water vapor emitted, expressed in pounds per 1,000 square feet over a 24-hour period.
For accurate results, the test must be conducted under consistent temperature and humidity conditions, ensuring the environment mirrors what the building will be subjected to during regular use.

This was just what I needed to determine the moisture throughput of my concrete slab. Easy to use with good directions. But you do need to have a postal or other high-precision scale in order to use this test.

The instructions for this test direct you to place the container with the pellets on the floor, saying "pellets should be level throughout dish", then cover it with the included dome. I need to test moisture coming through my basement wall, and it appears this test cannot be used on a vertical surface. I sure wish the description had included that information as this test is useless to me.

Very good and decently priced tests for moisture in concrete. They are well packaged and come with detailed instructions on how to use and measure the moisture content coming through a floor. The company offers a link to their website that has a calculator to make your life easier.

Worked great, but the adhesive stuck to the concrete and created more work.
