How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Illinois City

A dry touch is not a dry material reading. The technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before equipment comes out.

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

   A dry reference helps confirm when affected materials are ready for later finishes.
