How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Morton Grove

The first 24 to 48 hours matter because mold can start growing on wet building materials. Water removal and measured drying address the source of that risk.

1. Remove standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard floors, then check whether lower rooms have pooled water.

2. Map wet materials

   Thermal imaging can point to suspect areas that technicians confirm with moisture measurements.

3. Open trapped areas

   Access points are chosen from the measured wet area rather than a broad guess.

4. Dry and verify

   Measured structural drying continues after visible puddles disappear.
