  • Patent number: 12270197
    Abstract: An apparatus, structure, and method are disclosed for flood remediation of a residential or commercial structure. The flood remediation apparatus, structure, and method may include forming foam insulation in a certain shape within a wall and using modified cement boards instead of traditional drywall. Forming the foam insulation in a certain shape, such as the shape of a rut or cavity, will provide a channel to allow water from a flood event to flow out and air to flow into the interior of a wall. Using modified cement boards in place of drywall allows airflow to travel to the interior portion of the wall and is a more durable material that can be dried, cleaned, and reattached onto the wall once all interior surfaces that came in contact with flood waters are completely dried. In other embodiments, the cement boards may be left on the wall. In some embodiments, drying behind a cement board wall is facilitated with a portable fan blower adapter.
