How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Vanderbilt

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

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

3. Open trapped areas

   A wet carpet pad often needs attention even when the carpet surface feels clear.

4. Dry and verify

   Measured structural drying continues after visible puddles disappear.
