How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Central City

Standing water spreads into seams and wall bases while cleanup waits. Extraction starts the drying process, followed by moisture checks and dehumidification.

1. Remove standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard floors, then check whether lower rooms have pooled water.

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

3. Open trapped areas

   Access points are chosen from the measured wet area rather than a broad guess.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers run until daily readings reach the drying target.
