Extract escaped condensate
When a drain pan spills, extraction limits the water that could spread. Wet floor coverings are checked for trapped moisture. A pan spill above a room can feed several low spots; each puddle gets assessed.
-
Map the hidden wet area
A wall-mounted unit can leak behind the finish. Readings at several heights help trace how far water moved. Measurements down the wall help distinguish one drip track from a wider damp cavity.
-
Address soaked materials
Water that passed through dirty cavities can require sanitizing. The technician evaluates the affected surfaces during cleanup. When water crossed dirty surfaces, the cleanup plan accounts for those conditions.
-
Dry and check progress
Drying continues until readings support that the affected materials are dry. The crew records progress for the loss file. Recorded progress shows when materials stopped holding excess moisture from the AC leak.
