The Tramex Hygrohood for TREMS-Xtra (RHIH) is a purpose-built insulated hood designed to accurately measure relative humidity and temperature in concrete and cementitious floors. Used in conjunction with the TREMS-Xtra Remote Environmental Monitoring System, this tool enables consistent and reliable surface RH testing in line with British Standard codes of practice.
Ideal for both spot checks and long-term monitoring, the Hygrohood ensures proper environmental conditions before flooring installations. It provides a sealed testing chamber that, when combined with Tramex RH probes and monitoring devices, allows users to remotely view real-time temperature, RH, dew point, and moisture content levels on the Tramex Cloud platform.
Compliant with BS8201, BS8203, and BS5325, the Hygrohood is an essential accessory for professional flooring installers, building inspectors, and moisture remediation specialists.
