How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Old Town

A puddle may disappear while cavity insulation remains wet. Early moisture mapping helps the crew find those materials before dampness lingers.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Crews recover shallow pools and check whether lower rooms collected water from an overhead release.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Material readings establish the affected area and an appropriate dry target.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   The team exposes retained moisture where measurements show the assembly is not improving.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Progress checks show whether each affected surface is moving toward the target.
