Interpreting the Reading:
readings is affected by a number of variables so the
readings must be considered relative on a slab by
slab basis. Use the meter to determine the best loca-
tions for placement of the manufacturer's suggested
test. Further testing methods such as relative humidity
testing should always be used to determine if the
concrete is ready for the floor covering installation.
