How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Ripley

An air mover alone cannot dry water trapped under flooring. The crew uses readings to find those pockets and selects access or removal where needed.

1. Remove standing water

   Water removal targets low spots first, including thresholds where flow has collected.

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

   The crew records drying progress for the property owner and insurance claim.
