How Accidental Fire Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Caledonia

1. Remove standing water

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

2. Map wet materials

   The crew checks ceiling cavities and rooms below to trace the discharge path.

3. Open trapped areas

   The crew removes unsalvageable porous materials and records why they came out.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers run until daily readings reach the drying target.

• Have authorized personnel stop the sprinkler flow and check system status.
• Avoid operating damp switches or unplugging devices from standing water.
• Photograph the discharge area and spreading water from a safe position.
• Move small dry belongings out of the water path when safe.
