How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Jefferson

A ceiling cavity can hold sprinkler water beyond the visible drip. Technicians check above panels and remove saturated materials that cannot dry safely.

1. Remove standing water

   The extraction crew clears pooled sprinkler water before it enters more seams and wall bases.

2. Map wet materials

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

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.
