How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Alta

A dry touch is not a dry material reading. The technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before equipment comes out.

   After the system is controlled, crews extract water from reachable wet areas and protect dry nearby space.

2. Map wet materials

   A technician compares wet readings with dry reference materials in the same building.

3. Open trapped areas

   Saturated ceiling panels may come out so the space above can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians adjust equipment as the wet footprint shrinks and material readings change.
