But the calculation can't be right since 200 KW were consumed over 24 hours. And that includes the display program. So either I have a knot in my brain or I just don't understand you...

Was on-site again this morning to empty the dehumidifiers. After 16 hours, they were only about 80% full. About an hour ago I was there again, after about 8 hours. They were only about 30% full. Humidity was 35-42%. It was only lukewarm inside the house. I will talk to the construction manager on Monday. Is it normal for the water absorption to decrease so quickly? At the beginning, they were always full after 12 hours, sometimes even after 9 hours, and the humidity was sometimes 90%.

I have also been confused for days.
I looked into it now because something kept telling me all along that something was wrong with it (not just the quantity of six).
Quote from my blog: "Even for a drying machine, it is still too early. Only after two weeks, says the site manager. The Obi rental service expert in Hamburg-Harburg also wouldn’t let us have one earlier... :p"

Too early and too fast drying is not good: the screed will then bow significantly, and extracting the moisture too quickly is not good for the material.
P.s. Following advice from several sources, we had _one_ drying machine running for 140 sqm. I don’t remember the capacity anymore.

The drying program and the specifications come directly from Kneif. That’s why I would trust that. But ask again. I am only confused that the moisture is down so quickly and so little water is extracted.

Maybe exactly because it is not slow enough. The first millimeters of the surface are probably already bone dry, while the lower "layers" are still wet. There is no better flow then. It's like baking: too high a temperature creates a dried-out crust on the outside, while inside it remains soggy. The cake is usually beyond saving then.

The chemical process already binds most of the water. If you have now extracted 300-500 liters of water from walls, plaster, and screed, the worst is over. The heating program increases the temperature by 1-2° every day - until the plateau. Presumably, one dehumidifier in the attic is now sufficient. In the past, people simply ventilated for 8 weeks, and that worked too. Nowadays there is time pressure, the tiler is supposed to start drilling after 3 weeks. Everything is relaxed in the summer months; it is more critical in the winter!
