How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Matthews

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. A crew extracts sprinkler water and measures concealed areas before dampness persists.

   The extraction crew clears pooled sprinkler water before it enters more seams and wall bases.

2. Map wet materials

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

3. Open trapped areas

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

4. Dry and verify

   Measured structural drying continues after visible puddles disappear.
