How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Ionia

A ceiling cavity can hold sprinkler water beyond the visible drip. Technicians check above panels and remove saturated materials that cannot dry safely.

1. Remove standing water

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

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.
