How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Roxana

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

1. Remove standing water

   A technician documents the standing water and extracts it before setting the drying plan.

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

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.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

A winter pipe split may release water when a frozen section thaws. A building owner can document both system work and structural drying as separate scopes.
