Review: Works perfectly fine. - Seems to be a great moisture meter. I believe it's accurate and the readings are consistent. Before and after planing shows a difference of .4% which proves this meter was worth the money. It also works great for other materials. Would recommend.
Review: Cheaper than getting a surveyor In - Used this to check how wet walls were after a flood or escape of water as insurance call them. This helped gauge how dry our building was for repairs to start

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used to find damp in my caravan? And how accurate are the results?**
A: If your caravan is made of drywall, masonry, hardwood, and softwood it can detect it results are reliable when used correctly

**Q: Using in caravan on softwood goes off scale areas wall solid and no sign damp. Is meter working ok ?**
A: Trust your instruments (as I was always taught when flying)!

**Q: Can it detect moisture in the room?**
A: It detects damp in masonry, drywall and wood when placed against the surface.  It won't detect moisture in a room. You need a hygrometer to record the humidity/dampness in a room.

**Q: I have some faint yellow patches on ceiling but not sure if leak or condensation. Will this work on walls and ceilings and floors? Is it accurate?**
A: We have found it very accurate - works on all walls and floors.  We haven't tried it on the ceiling but I don't see why not.  Hope that helps.
