How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Pontiac

An air mover alone cannot dry water trapped under flooring. The crew uses readings to find those pockets and selects access or removal where needed.

1. Remove standing water

   After the system is controlled, crews extract water from reachable wet areas and protect dry nearby space.

2. Map wet materials

   Testing wall bases and subfloors shows where surface mopping failed to reach.

3. Open trapped areas

   When water sits behind trim, selective opening gives moisture an escape path.

4. Dry and verify

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