How Fire Sprinkler Head Leak Cleanup Works in Farmersburg

2. Map wet materials

   The crew checks ceiling cavities and rooms below to trace the discharge path.

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.

• Call a fire sprinkler contractor to assess and isolate the affected system.
• Do not twist, plug or remove the sprinkler head.
• Photograph the drip and surrounding stains from a safe spot.
