How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Afton

Delayed discovery usually broadens the wet footprint. A restoration crew checks adjacent spaces, extracts standing water and tracks daily readings.

1. Remove standing water

   A restoration team starts with visible water so structural drying can address what remains inside materials.

2. Map wet materials

   A technician compares wet readings with dry reference materials in the same building.

3. Open trapped areas

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

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians adjust equipment as the wet footprint shrinks and material readings change.
